How are they achieving these benefits?

Digital Workflow: Biblio’s Workflow module eradicates paper forms and all the nuances that accompany them. The integrated Inbox tool saves considerable time spent by people carrying paper forms from one desk to another, reduces errors in forms due to inbuilt validation and prevents paperwork from getting lost.

Central Management of Bibliographic Data: BIblio’s single central database eliminates data discrepancy issues and re-keying information. Information only ever needs entering once and is always accurate and up to date.

Scheduling Functionality: Biblio’s Scheduling functionality enables all users to view the current schedule and update it with the latest progress. In addition, schedules can be automatically rescheduled and previewed showing the effects of various scenarios. Prior to using Biblio companies would have to update each individual schedule item one at a time when a publication date changed which would take hours not minutes.

Automatic Creation of Title Information Sheets: Biblio’s automatic creation of TIP sheets saves customers between 30-60 minutes per title, removing the need to copy and paste information from various locations into a word document or template.

Catalogue Creation: Biblio’s capability to support catalog creation has automated an entirely manual process and provides huge benefits to customers. One customer has saved on average 12 weeks a year to produce various catalogs.

Digitised Contracts : Biblio’s electronic document storage facility and digitized contracts replaces paper and spreadsheets with central online storage, providing better coordinated access to documents and information. 60-70% of the time spent searching for contract and rights information can be saved by Biblio enabling people to self service information.

Integrated Digital Asset Management: All assets including preprint files, pictures, XML content, print files and ebooks are all stored centrally with all bibliographic metadata automatically attached to assets. This eliminates duplication of data entry for metadata against assets and allows assets to be located and utilized with ease.
