The Independent Scholarly Publishers Group (ISPG) has chosen USACO Corporation as its exclusive sales agent in Japan for consortia and library sales. USACO Corporation has already been able to attain the endorsement for the ISPG Collection from the Japanese Medical Library Association and the Japanese Pharmaceutical Library Association.
USACO Corporation is an information service intermediary that has been linking science information societies and publishers with librarians and researchers in Japan since 1934. Now, with this new agreement, those librarians and researchers will have the opportunity to access ISPG's high-quality content from 34 journals and other related academic content from 14 life science and medical publishers.
The Independent Scholarly Publishers Group (ISPG) is a coalition of independent publishers of high-impact journals and related academic content, hosted on the HighWire platform, which promotes, markets to, and negotiates with library consortia, hospitals and other organizations around the world.
