With Jackie Stedall, Beery is the editor of Thomas Harriot’s Doctrine of Triangular Numbers: the 'Magisteria Magna' (European Mathematical Society, 2009).[5] She is also an editor of Women in Mathematics – Celebrating the Centennial of the Mathematical Association of America (Springer, 2017), with Sarah J. Greenwald, Jacqueline Jensen-Vallin, and Maura Mast.

She has been editor-in-chief of Convergence, a journal of the Mathematical Association of America, since 2009.[3] She has also been active with the College Board in developing examination questions and instructional material for the AP Calculus exam,[1][3] and has been clerk of the Association for Women in Mathematics since 2014.[6]
