This video shows reviewers for the PLOS Community Journals, PLOS Pathogens, PLOS NTDs, PLOS Computational Biology, and PLOS Genetics how to submit a review in Editorial Manager.
==INSTRUCTIONS==
First, log in to EM as a reviewer.
On your main menu, you’ll see the manuscript in your “pending assignments” folder. Choose “submit recommendation” from the action links to open the reviewer form.
Select your recommendation from the drop-down menu at the top. Only editors and staff will see your recommendation. It will not be forwarded to the authors.
Send us your evaluation of the submission based on our publication criteria by completing each field in the form. Required fields are marked in red.
Enter substantive comments in the question called "Reviewer Comments to the Author."
If your review exceeds 20,000 characters, you can upload a copy as an attachment.
Your identity will not be revealed to the author unless you have signed your review or if you uploaded an attachment with your name in the filename or the file itself.
If you'd like to return later to make changes, click "Save and Submit Later". If you're done with your review, go ahead and click "Proceed."
The following page summarizes your review. Don't forget to check your decision recommendation and make sure that all of your comments are included.
When you're finished, click "Submit Review to Journal Office" then "Ok". You have successfully submitted your review.
