Copyediting and Content Editing

Our experience with academic and non-academic writing and publishing means that we can edit your documents according to a variety of styles and formats.

• Correction of grammar, punctuation, structure, and organization
  

• Revision of your documents for content, logic, and style
  

• Editing for proper citation of sources, including online sources, in a variety of acceptable formats
