Register and Select New Reviewer

When searching for Reviewers, Editors with permission have the option to proxy register a new Reviewer. A Register and Select New Reviewer link appears in the left section of the Reviewer Selection Summary page and on Reviewer search pages.

The link facilitates the quick registration of a prospective Reviewer without having to exit the Reviewer selection interface. The Editor can proxy register the person using minimal contact information and immediately send an invitation email, or select the Author as an alternate.

To register and select a new Reviewer:

  1. Click the Register and Select New Reviewer link. This opens the proxy registration page.
  2. Enter the email address of the Reviewer you are registering.
  3. Enter the name of the Reviewer.
  4. Complete all other required fields (as configured by the publication).
  5. Click Register User and Send Letter. This opens the Customize Proxy Registration Letter page.
  6. Review letter contents and edit as needed. This letter notifies the user of registration.
  7. Click Send Letter.

After sending letter the system opens the Proxy Register and Select Reviewer page. The newly registered Reviewer appears in the Reviewer Candidates grid and may be selected (as an invited, alternate, or proposed Reviewer).

Request unregistered Reviewer

Editors who do not have permission to proxy register users can request that a potential Reviewer be registered. A Request Unregistered Reviewer link appears in the left section of the Reviewer Selection Summary page and on Reviewer search pages.

To make a request:

  1. Click the Request Unregistered Reviewer link. This opens a letter form.
  2. In the letter body, enter names and contact information of the Reviewers you would like registered.
  3. Click Send.
