Karen B.

Are you looking for a professional who will ensure the quality of your finished product? Well, you have just found the right person! I have a passion for reading and specialize in editing and proofreading documents in English. I am eager to ensure your final document is flawless and of the highest standard, utilizing your preferred style manual. I have several years' experience proofreading and editing various documents including corporate documents, nonfiction manuscripts, Christian literature, and academic articles. My eagle eyes will detect your typos, misspellings, and grammatical errors. I will also standardize capitalization, American or British English usage and ensure proper punctuation. I pay keen attention to detail and always meet deadlines. As the holder of a master's degree in Library and Information Studies, I have the training and experience to assist with fact-checking. I have also written articles in the field of librarianship. I have sharpened my skills by completing a course in General Proofreading: Theory and Practice. It would be a delight to serve you in this capacity. Please contact me, so together we can work to achieve your goals. Here are some comments on my work: "Recently, when I had to prepare nine Bible Study outlines (each for a different Bible character), for our Caribbean Ladies Retreat held in June 2019, Karen Barton did the editing and proofreading. She did an excellent and thorough job, though given a short time to do so, responding in good time. Karen gave detailed, well organized, easily understood and very helpful comments. She demonstrated that she has a very keen eye for spotting errors of various sorts, and so made the requisite corrections. Karen did an equally good job editing and proofreading the bookmark and banner (both with text and graphics) which I designed for the retreat. Her work contributed much to the high-quality resources produced for the retreat."€ Norma Lee, PhD Retired Educator "Karen Barton is highly recommended as an excellent proofreader, having had many years of experience proofreading numerous reports, papers, manuals, brochures, policy documents, and other publications for the library service. Mrs. Barton is thorough, gives keen attention to detail and the completed documents were always on time and of the highest standard. Her work ethic is commensurate with her positive attitude and reliability. Your documents will be handled professionally, confidentially, and with great expertise. I, therefore, have no hesitation in recommending her services."€ Maureen Thompson Director General Jamaica Library Service "Karen is a fantastic writer, one of the best I've worked with. Her articles are very enjoyable to read, the topics covered are thoroughly researched and the copy is well structured with a great flow." Calin Onet Transylvania International Media Group
