This Handbook of Latinos and Education (HLE) will have the unique purpose and function of profiling the scope and terrain of this particular domain of academic inquiry. It will represent the most significant and potentially influential work in the field of Latinos and Education, in terms of its contributions to research, to professional practice, and to the emergence of related interdisciplinary studies and theory.

The length of the Handbook will be 600-900 printed pages (900 - 1200 manuscript pages) but it may be shorter (400-500 printed pages, which is about 600 to 750 manuscript pages). The volume will be divided into sections, each addressing a major theme in the field. Each section will have about 6-10 chapters. Each chapter will focus on a specific aspect within the section theme.

There will be a multi-stakeholder collaborative team made up of a Principal Editor, Associate Editors, Section Editors, an Advisory Board, Consulting Editors, Chapter Authors, and LEA/T&F Acquisitions / Production Manager / CopyEditors.

The Handbook will capture the field at this point in time -- each chapter will be a comprehensive review of research and practice on the topic that is its focus (not a research report of a single study, but a piece representing the authors' particular point of view, etc...)

There will be an Editorial Board (to help us build a contents map, review chapter drafts, and identify the most pertinent resources for the appendix). 

There will be Consulting Editors to work with specific authors and chapters (to comprehensively review key scholars, the array of conceptual, philosophical and methodological approaches, and the main programs of research and lines of thinking).

Associate Editors and Section Editors will work with the respective Section Teams, to hold the sections together conceptually and address any gaps in the knowledge base.
