Healthcare information provider Wolters Kluwer Health (WK Health), US, has announced that its Professional & Education unit has implemented Copyright Clearance Center, Inc.'s RightsLink Premium to manage copyright permissions for its Lippincott Williams & Wilkins (LWW) book publications. RightsLink services are already available for LWW journals. The new book-related service is now available when browsing title-specific information on the publisher's Website at lww.com.
RightsLink streamlines a publisher's permissions business by allowing customers to order permissions directly at the point of content – both on the Web and through mobile apps. RightsLink Premium is a sophisticated transactional engine that enables publishers to tailor their licensing options according to their specific business rules and pricing needs.
