Reprints Desk, a US-based content re-purposing company focused on medical and scientific publishing, has announced the launch of the Order Filtering feature. The service, in combination with open URL link-outs and single sign-on functionality, is projected to enable customers to optimise the content resources they have already paid for or licensed, including online subscriptions and Copyright Clearance Center licences.
The Order Filtering feature checks incoming document orders against customer holdings in order to "bounce-back" orders to internal sources for fulfillment when appropriate. It can be combined with other components to create an end-user friendly workflow. For instance, Open URL link-outs can be used to pass citation data and place orders with Reprints Desk. Single sign-on capabilities allow end-users to access the Reprints Desk order form and other website features without logging in with a specific username and password.
The new service has been launched in line with customer demand for a seamless unmediated document delivery workflow, according to Reprints Desk, a subsidiary of Derycz Scientific, Inc. A full unmediated workflow is expected to allow customers to track statistics on journal and article usage, by user or department, regardless of how the content is paid for. Order Filtering can be configured to work with a library's particular requirements for delivery and billing.
