Publicly Available, Transparent, and Explicit: An Analysis of Academic Publishing Policy and Procedure Documents

Hannah L. Stevens

Abstract

This article forwards a document analysis of the University Press of Colorado's publicly available academic and scholarly publishing policies and procedure materials. This analysis utilizes the online heuristic "Anti-Racist Scholarly Reviewing Practices: A Heuristic for Editors, Reviewers, and Authors," (ARRH) and a framework developed by the author that works to pinpoint places within publishing policy and process documents that may allow for discriminatory and oppressive practice. To conclude, this article forwards tangible changes to academic publishing process documents to ensure that inclusion remains an important consideration in the drafting of publishing policy and guideline documents.
