ReviewerCredits

Publications can integrate with ReviewerCredits, an independent web-based platform, that enables reviewers to gain visibility and recognition for reviews. Reviewers register and create a profile on ReviewerCredits where their Reviewer Index displays their confirmed reviews.

During the review process, Reviewers can be asked if they agree to send their review data to ReviewerCredits. The publication can configure a standard report (using Enterprise Analytics Reporting) to transmit review data to ReviewerCredits. These data are used by ReviewerCredits to confirm the reviews.

To learn more about ReviewerCredits, visit the ReviewerCredits website.

An Editor with reporting permissions must schedule a report to send the data to ReviewerCredits.
