Imprints

AUP Online supports imprints. That is to say that on Edify, which uses the term “publishers”,

• there is an overview page of publishers: /content/publishers This pages lists all publishers on the platform.
• there are pages for publishers, e.g. /content/p010 On this page, information about the publisher can be displayed, as well as its publications
• there is a search filter for publishers, e.g. /search?value1=peanut&option1=fulltext&facetOptions=51&value51=%22p010%22&facetNames=pub_publisherIdent_facet&option51=pub_publisherIdent_facet&operator51=AND which searches for the term peanut then fiters by a particular publisher.

how to add a new publisher?

1. log-in as site admin
2. go to /content/publishers
3. click on the edit menu on the left-hand side (wrench symbol) and select Create new Publisher
4. Fill in the desired fields in the pop-up menu and click on Create in the bottom right corner.

You will see that the publisher URL corresponds to the publisher ID you entered. You can now edit the page to provide information about the imprint.

how to add publications to a publisher?

Add the publisher ID to the XML.

<publisher>
  <publisher-name>Peanut Butter Publishers</publisher-name>
  <publisher-name specific-use="publisher-id">p010</publisher-name>
  <publisher-loc>
  <addr-line>Wall Street 1</addr-line>
  <postal-code>1018 VR</postal-code>
  <city>New York City</city>
  <country>USA</country>
  </publisher-loc>
</publisher>

The match with the publisher hinges on the publisher ID, so make sure you get that correct.

Ingenta tells us that adding publications to a publisher can also be done manually, by Ingenta. Do this only wehen there is a good reason not to follow the usual loading procedure.

It is not possible to “change” a product’s publisher after it has been published on AUP Online. This means you have to assign it a publisher at publication time. The only way around this is to ask Ingenta to do it manually. Do this in emergencies only.

adding a journal

If you’re adding a new journal rather than adding books (or adding articles to an existing journal), do as follows:

1. Login as site admin
2. Go to the publisher page (or create a new one if it doesn’t exist yet)
3. Create the journal. This associates the journal with the publisher

The publisher name is displayed on the journal homepage and article homepage for example. The journals listing page shows a publisher facet.
