Sarah Muncy has accepted the position of full time assistant managing editor for the University of Cincinnati Press. Sarah, who started at the Press in August 2017, began as a 2nd year graduate assistant working in the role of editorial assistant. After earning her master’s in history from the University of Cincinnati, she stayed on with the Press in a new position as temporary production coordinator.
In her new role as assistant managing editor, Sarah will coordinate production activities for both CLIPS and university press imprints, which includes creating productions schedules, working with contracted authors and journal editors, coordinating freelance typesetters and designers, evaluating art and cover designs, maintaining print vendor relationships, sending typesetter files to printers and e-book converters and overseeing countless other details from permissions to copyright.
Sarah was recently awarded one of four prestigious 2019 Early Career Fellowships from the Society for Scholarly Publishers (SSP). This one-year fellowship includes an all-expense paid trip to the SSP annual meeting in San Diego, California, followed by career development, training, registration to select events throughout the year and an invitation to participate on SSP committees and mentoring activities.
