The Review Process
Manuscripts submitted to The Missouri Reader are first reviewed internally by the editor. If it is
determined that a manuscript fulfills the mission of MR, it is sent to at least two peers for review. Criteria
for evaluating manuscripts are: 1) interest to readers; 2) clarity of writing; 3) content-fresh, accurate,
consistent, well-reasoned; and 4) blend of theory and practice.
Articles are the expression of the writers, and do not necessarily reflect the beliefs of the International
Reading Association, the Missouri State Council, or The Missouri Reader editor or editorial advisory board.
