Production
The magazine is printed on recycled paper by The Birches Printers, Willenhall, West Midlands. It is sold predominantly on a subscription only basis and there are subscribers across the UK, US and Europe. Individual copies are sold from the Quaker Bookshop, Friends House, London.
The magazine has five editors which are appointed by Young Friends General Meeting, having been discerned by that Meeting's Nominations Committee. They are appointed for a period of three years, during which time, each editor will work on approximately 15 editions.
Young Quaker is edited over a weekend by two editors out of five, who piece together the contributions and advertisements with their own thoughts and ideas to form the final magazine, which is usually between 24 and 32 pages. A 36 page issue has been produced, as have editions of less pages, though these are now less common.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“An art whose limits depend on a moving image, mass audience, and industrial production is bound to differ from an art whose limits depend on language, a limited audience, and individual creation. In short, the filmed novel, in spite of certain resemblances, will inevitably become a different artistic entity from the novel on which it is based.”
—George Bluestone, U.S. educator, critic. “The Limits of the Novel and the Limits of the Film,” Novels Into Film, Johns Hopkins Press (1957)
“It is part of the educator’s responsibility to see equally to two things: First, that the problem grows out of the conditions of the experience being had in the present, and that it is within the range of the capacity of students; and, secondly, that it is such that it arouses in the learner an active quest for information and for production of new ideas. The new facts and new ideas thus obtained become the ground for further experiences in which new problems are presented.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
“I really know nothing more criminal, more mean, and more ridiculous than lying. It is the production either of malice, cowardice, or vanity; and generally misses of its aim in every one of these views; for lies are always detected, sooner or later.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
