Data Harmony

Access Innovations has announced the Author Submit extension module as part of its Data Harmony Version 3.9 release.

Author Submit is a Data Harmony application for integration of author-selected subject metadata information into a publishing workflow during the paper submissions or upload process. Author Submit is said to facilitate the addition of taxonomy terms by the author.

With the module, each author provides subject metadata from the publisher taxonomy to accompany the item they are submitting. During the submission process, Data Harmony’s M.A.I. core application suggests subject terms based on a controlled vocabulary, and the author chooses appropriate terms to describe the content of their document. This is said to assist with early categorisation and selection of peer reviewers and support for trend analysis.
