The author is responsible for the internal review. All numbered Extension publications must go through the internal review process. At least two faculty should review the publication for accuracy and content. Reviewers can be from within the author’s home department, discipline, or commodity area. If senior author is county faculty, the internal review must be coordinated through the appropriate department depending on subject matter. It is suggested that at least one reviewer be a research colleague. After the corrections or suggestions have been considered, send the publication to at least two county faculty for review. They will review the publication for readability.

After the internal review is complete, the department head is responsible for sending the publication to at least two outside peer reviewers.

If the publication is also being translated into a Spanish version, one person fluent in Spanish, in addition to the original translator, must review the publication for accuracy of translation.
