The Sheridan Group has expanded their Electronic Content Services (ECS) commerce platforms to allow integration with Sheridan's Print-on-Demand (POD) system, Journal Anthology support, and the ability to auto-import multiple titles into the system.
Sheridan's ECS offering, launched over a year ago, enables publishers to sell books and publications directly to consumers from their websites, creating a new publisher revenue stream.
Three different fulfillment models are available. These include Sheridan Connect, Publisher Connect and ShelfWise. The latest enhancements to ECS offer even greater flexibility and opportunities to publishers. Specifically a one-off print option within the shopping cart; the ability to market collections of journal articles, special editions, or themed anthologies, available electronically or in print, via the shopping cart; and the functionality of batch product import, to easily upload multiple titles for set-up in the eStore.
