From the IPEd Standards Working Party
I am very pleased to announce the release of the third edition of IPEd standards for editing practice on Thursday 21 March 2024.
The review of the Standards has been a thorough, consultative process that has taken close to three years to complete. This edition has a strong focus on editing for accessibility, diversity, equity and inclusion, and Māori and First Nations peoples, with reviews conducted by external specialists. Other changes to the Standards reflect the current and emerging trends in the editing and publishing industry.
We invite all IPEd members to attend the online launch of IPEd standards for editing practice on Thursday 21 March 2024 at 6 pm AEDT / 8 pm NZDT which will include opportunity for discussion.
I would like to thank everyone involved in the process, especially the members of the IPEd Standards Working Party, who have given their time and expertise during this process.
