The preparation and publication of the Encyclopædia Britannica requires trained staff. According to the final page of the 2007 Propædia, the staff are organized into ten departments:[1]
- Editorial staff (19 editors and 1 executive assistant)
- Art and Cartography (9 employees)
- Compositional Technology and Design (4 employees)
- Copy Department (12 employees)
- Editorial and Publishing Technologies (5 employees)
- Information Management (9 employees)
- Media Asset Management and Production Control (4 employees)
- Reference Librarians (3 employees)
- World Data (5 employees)
- Manufacturing (1 employee)
Some of these departments are organized hierarchically. For example, the copy editors are divided into 4 copy editors, 2 senior copy editors, 4 supervisors, plus a coordinator and a director. Similarly, the Editorial department is headed by Dale Hoiberg and assisted by four others; they oversee the work of five senior editors, nine associate editors, and one executive assistant.
