Seeking Compositor to layout forthcoming issues of the Berkshire Family Historian

Administration volunteer needed for Berkshire Family History Society

Berkshire Family History Society works to meet the needs of those researching their ancestry across the UK and overseas – as well as those looking for former relatives in historic Berkshire

We are seeking a new compositor to layout forthcoming issues of our quarterly magazine, Berkshire Family Historian. Our Editorial panel receives regular and feature articles from a variety of sources. These are edited and proofread before being sent as ‘final versions’ to the compositor who arranges them within the pages to become the quality magazine.

The new compositor does not necessarily need to be a member of Berkshire Family History Society, or live in Berkshire, as all production matters can be managed via email if required.

Alternatively, if you would like to become involved in the production of the Berkshire Family Historian in a more independent way, you may wish to consider becoming the sole editor managing the whole process yourself (with support from the existing panel in the beginning, of course).
