Ingram Content Group Inc., US, has announced agreements with two university presses - the University of Michigan Press and the University Press of Kentucky - for e-content management. The university presses have selected Ingram's digital asset management platform, CoreSource, to archive and distribute materials to partners worldwide.
The University of Michigan Press, part of the University of Michigan Library, is a primary publishing unit of the University. The Press publishes materials in a wide range of humanities and social science disciplines. It recently launched its innovative University of Michigan Digital Humanities Series, which advances understanding of the dynamic relationships between humanities and digital technologies. The Press has a mission of using the best technology to disseminate the information it publishes as freely and widely as possible, while preserving the integrity of published scholarship. To further its mission, the Press has selected Ingram's CoreSource platform for digital file management and distribution of both frontlist and backlist titles.
The University Press of Kentucky (UPK) publishes books of scholarly merit in a variety of fields in addition to books about the history and culture of Kentucky, the Ohio Valley region, the Upper South, and Appalachia. UPK has selected Ingram's CoreSource for their electronic content management needs, making their entire frontlist and select backlist tiles available through the platform. UPK currently uses Ingram's Lightning Source for their print-on-demand initiatives.
Ingram's CoreSource claims to be an easy to use, online solution for the storage, management, and distribution of digital content. CoreSource delivers a secure, searchable content repository and a high-capacity data distribution network, allowing publishers to move digital content easily and swiftly from their organisation to any channel partner globally.
