A project-specific web portal for authors that provides a Welcome Message from the Publisher, Editorial Guidelines, Project-specific instructions and Workflow, access to the publishing contract/agreement, and data fields to capture key information from the author/contributor including their biographies and key words/phrases associated with their expertise.

BENEFITS: Streamlines the content creation and development process. Captures author data that can be used to create early awareness of the project with the target market. Eliminates what is currently a human-driven communication process, thus reducing administration costs. Tags and stores critical author data in one place, providing one-click access to various role players in the organization (e.g., Editorial, Production, Design, Marketing, Sales).
