Academic copy editors - PhD dissertation

[genevieve trail]

Dear colleagues, 

I am presently looking for a copy-editor for my PhD dissertation. They should have expertise in academic editing, and particular experience with the dissertation format. 

I am asking this question in the an4aa group with the hope that it might benefit others in the future.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Warmly,
Genevieve

Marion Mapham: marion...@anu.edu.au (Ph: 6125 5003 and M: 0414 332 640): “I am a

qualified editor and work right here on campus. I have edited many theses, assignments and

papers for students from ANU and other universities so I have plenty of relevant experience. I

find my help is particularly good for students from a non-English speaking background. If you

need qualified assistance, contact me for a chat about how I can help you. You don't need to

leave it until you've finalised your thesis, I can work on chapters as you have them ready. Price is

dependent on type of document and number of words.”

students in recent years, as well as journal articles by overseas authors. In my earlier role as a

Learning Advisor at ANU, I also had opportunity to work with and support higher degree students

in the School of Art and Design in both 1:1 consultation and workshop settings. My Canberra
