Academic publisher De Gruyter has partnered with LibLynx to provide Identity, Access and Analytics for their new digital publishing platform.
De Gruyter’s goal is a highly customised digital platform that allows the publishing house to become more user-centered and data-driven and react much more flexibly to customer needs. In particular, they want to explore more efficient and innovative approaches that support a diverse portfolio of subscription and open access content.
LibLynx’s authentication API provides De Gruyter with a highly flexible method for confirming a user’s identity and entitlements that can easily be integrated into a variety of technical environments. A suite of supporting tools makes it easy for De Gruyter’s existing systems to seamlessly integrate into LibLynx, allowing for high levels of automation and simplifying customer support workflows.
LibLynx’s plug and play analytics widget enables De Gruyter to embed on-demand and real-time usage reporting dashboards into the new platform. Publishing staff can have a unified view of usage across the platform, while giving customers and other stakeholders the flexibility to view reports online, download files, or automate ingestion via a SUSHI feed.
LibLynx began working on the implementation in late 2019, in collaboration with De Gruyter’s project team and their recently announced new software development partners, 67 Bricks. Migration to the new platform is forecast for early 2021.
