The manuscript submission and review processes for the Journal of Emergency Nursing and Disaster Management & Response journal have been computerized! Our publisher, Elsevier, has streamlined our systems through the use of their EES software at, http://ees.elsevier.com/jen/ for JEN and http://ees.elsevier.com/dmr/ for DMR. The many benefits of the program include the following:

• Authors submit their manuscripts electronically at the Web site. No hard copies! No computer discs! No snail mail! Specific author guidelines and instructions guide authors through the process.
• Authors can track the progress of their manuscript at any time by logging onto EES.
• Reviewers are invited to review manuscripts right on the Web site. No clumsy forms! No word-by-word editing! No faxing reviews! Just a step-by-step review system that includes clicking on evaluation choices and typing in your comments.
• Reviewers can update their personal information and indicate which “classifications” indicate their areas of expertise and interest.

All manuscript-related information is centrally located. The system is user-friendly and provides tutorials for authors and reviewers. Visit the Web site today and check it out!
