Introduction to LiXuid Manuscript: Why XML?

Aries Systems’ LiXuid Manuscript initiative aims to build new features and functionality around the transition from unstructured representations of journal articles (Word or PDF files) to structured representations (JATS XML).

 

But what makes XML so important to the publishing workflow? Find out on the Aries blog.

Meet the Aries Team: Tony Alves, Director of Product Management

Want to get to know some of the Aries team? Us too! In an effort to learn more about our colleagues and the important work they do, we’ve decided to sit down with some of our staff members to interview them about their roles at Aries, what led them to scholarly publishing, and what they like to do in their free time.

 

Read our latest interview with Tony Alves, Director of Product Management, who has been with Aries for 18 years.

15.1 Feature Spotlight: Import/Export to MECA Standards

Authors experience loss of time and effort with their manuscript is rejected by a journal and they have to repeat the submission process on one or more subsequent journals. To address this issue, the Manuscript Exchange Common Approach (MECA) has been developed to deliver a common transfer approach that can be widely adopted by numerous industry vendors.

 

Editorial Manager version 15.1 introduces a new method of import and export that conforms to MECA standards. Contact your Aries Account Coordinator for details or read more about MECA.

16.0 Feature Spotlight: People-based Correspondence History

Correspondence history that is stored in multiple locations makes it difficult for Editors and journal staff to quickly locate communications and take relevant action. To solve this problem and save staff time, Editorial Manager version 16.0 introduces people-based correspondence history.

 

This allows Editors and editorial staff to find EM-generated correspondence by a person’s name without needing to know the manuscript number, and allows users to view all system correspondence for which they are the primary recipient from a central location.

 

For more on upcoming 16.0 features or to join beta, contact your Account Coordinator today.
