Editorial Boards

  • Shayaan Ahmad Noori – Founder & CMD Creative Buffs is the current editor in chief.
  • Amos Sagolsem – Co-Editor

Following is the process of hiring our Editor Board.

The Editorial Board, or (Editorial) Advisory Board, is a team of experts in the journal’s field. Editorial board members:

  • Review submitted manuscripts.
  • Advice on journal policy and scope.
  • Identify topics for special issues, which they may guest edit.
  • Attract new authors and submissions.
  • Promote the journal to their colleagues and peers.
  • Assist the editor(s) in decision-making over issues such as plagiarism claims and submissions where reviewers can’t agree on a decision.

Selecting Editorial Board members

Editorial Board members are selected by the journal’s editor(s), with input from the publisher. Editorial boards generally undergo a complete revision every two or three years, with members joining, stepping down, or continuing for another term. Changes also occur in the interim, for example, if a member resigns.

A journal’s editorial board can affect its quality, so editors should consider the following:

  • The location of board members should represent the reach of the journal
  • Board members’ expertise should represent the journal’s scope
  • Representatives should be appointed from key research institutes
  • Former guest editors of special issues, and authors of key reviews, and top reviewers may be suitable
  • Existing board members may have suggestions for new members

If you’re interested in joining a journal’s editorial board, locate the journal, and contact the editor via the contact us page.
