YOUR GO-TO INTELLIGENCE RESOURCE FOR THE SCHOLARLY PUBLISHING INDUSTRY

Serials Solutions, a business unit of ProQuest, US, has announced that seven e-resource content providers have become KnowledgeWorks Certified. The content providers have pledged to work with Serials Solutions to supply quality bibliographic metadata to customers through the latter's KnowledgeWorks knowledgebase. Current KnowledgeWorks Certified providers include IEEE, ProQuest, Oxford University Press, OpinionArchives, Project MUSE, Now Publishers and Central and Eastern European Online Library (CEEOL).

The Serials Solutions KnowledgeWorks Certification Program seeks to promote the best possible collaboration between the company and content providers. These relationships will help Serials Solutions best represent the content providers' metadata and better serve the end user. Greater collaboration also helps it to more quickly resolve issues when they occur. The company provides content partners with Serials Solutions accounts, and access to metrics to verify the status of their metadata and its impact on their clients.

So that mutual subscribers are aware of which of their providers are KnowledgeWorks Certified, Serials Solutions supplies certified providers with KnowledgeWorks Certified logos and promotional materials. It also tracks certified providers on its webpage.
