STP is seeking nominations for the position of e-book editor. The successful nominee will solicit and receive potential e-books, work with the authors and editors during the creation and editing of the volumes, and coordinate publication with the STP Internet Editor. Self-nominations are welcome.

The editor is responsible for assessing each prospectus for an e-book to determine if it is within the purview of STP and to evaluate the potential for completion. The editor will also provide editorial assistance to authors and editors.
