Article Shelf

When customers come to us and ask for an article archive, repository or product literature database solution, we point them to Article Shelf

At Reprints Desk, we like to think of Article Shelf as the least expensive and easiest-to-implement citation matching and rights-managed article sharing service on the market for companies with unmediated document delivery workflows.  Our service helps knowledge professionals and their workgroup to share and collaborate around journal articles or other copyright-protected works once they have been legally acquired.

There are no platform fees, no customer IT requirements, and no user training necessary. Below are a few other details you might find interesting.

Instant PDF Display Designed for workgroups
Article Shelf was designed specifically to meet the needs of individuals and workgroups. Reprints Desk controls access without limiting desired functionality by categorizing users appropriately within its user management schema.
Instant PDF Display Embedded in the document delivery workflow
When one user places an order for an item already ordered by another workgroup colleague, Article Shelf will identify that order as being available for viewing without another purchase.  This saves time and headache for users who no longer have to visit another location and manually check to see what’s available.
Instant PDF Display Grows dynamically
The more business you do with Reprints Desk, the more your organization benefits. This is because your organization has the option of allowing the database of citations to grow dynamically with articles automatically added into Article Shelf each time a document delivery order is filled.
Checks against holdings Recognize rights, while reducing risk
Article Shelf was designed to support compliance withthe license terms from publisher licenses and Reproduction Rights Organizations (RROs) such as the Copyright Clearance Center and the Copyright Licensing Agency. It is also provides advantages versus the risky and faulty alternative of articles living unorganized in folders on hundreds of individual hard drives.  Contact us today and ask us how.
