Wiley has partnered with Publons to recognize the time and effort of peer reviewers since 2015. Over the past few years, we have seen our partnership continue to grow, with reviewers adding over 1,400,000 review records from Wiley journals to their Publons profiles. Publons helps researchers easily track and verify their peer review records and showcase their contributions to receive recognition for their fundamental work, including the option to download a customizable Publons CV to add to funding and promotion applications.

As of May 2020, over 250,000 Wiley reviewers are using Publons to record and verify their peer reviews. Many of them are adding reviews to Publons using electronic editorial office (EEO) integrations—over 1,000 Wiley journals have connected their ScholarOne Manuscripts, Editorial Manager, or other Electronic Editorial Offices (EEO) with Publons, so reviewers can opt-in and automatically get a verified record of their review added to their profile.

What’s the benefit of integrating your EEO with Publons?

  • Increased reviewer satisfaction: Many of your reviewers are likely already using Publons to manually add reviews, and integration makes the process automatic and seamless. You can look up your journal in Publons’ database and see how many of your reviewers are adding reviews manually already.
  • Access to the Editor dashboard: Once integrated, you can access a private Editor dashboard for your journal, where you can track reviewer activity, demographics, and where manuscripts you’ve rejected were published.
  • Help finding reviewers: Publons users can also indicate journals they’re interested in reviewing for. On the Editor dashboard, you can access this list for your journal. Using Publons database, you can also research reviewers that are reviewing for other journals in your subject area.

The infographic below highlights the key data behind the 250,000+ Wiley reviewers using Publons. If you haven’t integrated your EEO yet and would like to learn more, contact your Journal Publishing Manager.
