Reprints Desk Makes Pharmaceutical ePrint Procurement Service Available Through FIZ AutoDoc Document Delivery System
Monday 27. July 2009 - New service offering enables FIZ Karlsruhe customers in Europe and around the world to simplify electronic content re-use and improve visibility into enterprise content procurement
Reprints Desk, Inc., the content workflow company, and FIZ Karlsruhe, a European-based provider of information delivery services, today announced the immediate availability of Reprints Desk’s article ePrint procurement service within the FIZ AutoDoc full-text brokerage routing system for document delivery. The new service offering enables FIZ AutoDoc customers, including dozens of major life science and other research-intensive companies, to simplify the content retrieval workflow for individual buyers and to improve internal visibility into electronic content spending and regulatory compliance.
“Besides expanding the content available via FIZ AutoDoc we are also continuously enhancing the delivery options,” says Wendelin Detemple, Head FIZ Products and Services, Marketing and Sales, FIZ Karlsruhe. “Therefore, we are very pleased to be able to offer Reprints Desk’s ePrint procurement service for convenient ordering of bulk copies of articles, which is especially important for our key customers from the pharmaceutical industry.”
FIZ AutoDoc is the document delivery system of choice for many of Europe’s largest corporations, supporting unmediated and mediated ordering for single journal articles, patent documents, reports, conference papers, proceedings or other publications. Reprints Desk offers ePrint procurement services as part of its Reprints NRx service that makes it easier for life science and healthcare communications companies to order bulk copies of peer-reviewed journal articles from scientific and medical publications for use in promotions and educational programs. Scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles are important educational tools for pharmaceutical and other life science companies who communicate with medical professionals.
FIZ Karlsruhe integrated Reprints Desk’s STM Document Delivery service into the FIZ AutoDoc system in June 2008. Reprints Desk is a leading provider of content workflow solutions, including document delivery services in support of research plus reprint services in support of product promotions and educational outreach. Reprints Desk also launched the group purchasing software service Reprints GPO in March 2009 to help companies and their global affiliates save money by aggregating individual scientific and medical article reprint purchases.
