Q: If I need to leave Editorial Manager to search something else on the Web, do I need to log back in?

A: You do not log out of Editorial Manager. You can access other websites and then go back to Editorial Manager. We would suggest opening another browser window if you are going to be going back and forth frequently between Editorial Manager and other websites, since back and forward buttons can get confusing. The system will "time-out" after an extended period of non-use and you will be prompted to log back in. The reason for this is that since Editorial Manager is available from any web accessible computer, this "timing-out" is a security measure.
