PReSTO - Peer Review System Tracking Online

From initial submissions to finished proofs, PReSTO streamlines academic journal production in a way that's easy, flexible, and totally technically supported. PReSTO is a uniquely bilingual publishing tool from the University of Toronto Press that consolidates every aspect of publication within one coherent system, customized to provide every editor with maximum efficiency and control. Databases, author notifications and reviewer reminders, editorial and design guidelines, content scheduling, PDF proofs, finalized tables of contents-every part of the process can now be governed and overseen with a click. PReSTO saves time, and therefore money, by rendering automatic what formerly required a great deal of emailing, typically with documents attached. Editorial guidelines, updated progress reports, copy-editing queries: now all this can be obtained by simply logging into PReSTO with your encrypted password and zeroing in on whatever needs to get done. Say goodbye to your clerical needs and say hello to: Rachel McArthur, the PReSTO Electronic Managing Editor. She'll set up your PReSTO system, precisely tune it to your needs, and continue to provide technical support for your journal when needed.

The PReSTO Process:

  • An author logs on to PReSTO and joins the submission queue.
  • PReSTO send out an acknowledgment that the article has been received.
  • The editor can search the PReSTO database by name and area of expertise to find suitable reviewers, and PReSTO will send out an automatic e-mail to any number of them.
  • Once reviewers are assigned and accept, they can access the article and submit their evaluations via PReSTO.
  • PReSTO will monitor the schedule and send out reminders automatically.
  • After the Editor has made a decision, PReSTO will relay reviewer comments to the author.
  • Both the copy editor and the layout editor can access the article on PReSTO. If this phase of production is outsourced, proofreading and layout guidelines are also available on PReSTO.

Printing and Mailing Services

  • Print your journal to your specifications.
  • Mail to your subscribers no matter where they are. We use Canada Post, United States Postal Service, and Sprint to deliver our journals quickly and cost effectively.
