From a start page to a working intranet
Vox Liberata has launched version 2.0 of its intranet for internal use. The first version gave the publishing house a place to start. Version 2.0 gives it a place to work: a purpose-built intranet and document management system organised around the way an independent publisher researches, reviews and prepares its work.
Find the record and see what it means
The document centre brings working briefs and checklists into one place. A searchable research catalogue leads to individual records, while the publishing plan shows where work stands. A promising find can have a record long before it has an editorial decision.
Consider a manuscript that looks promising but still needs a rights check. Its research record can show why it merits a closer look, and the rights checklist can show what still needs to be established. The next person can pick up the work without having to reconstruct what was checked and what remains open.
Keep the working record private
The public site explains how Vox Liberata works. The intranet keeps the records behind that work available to authorised users. Keeping those two spaces separate lets the publishing house talk openly about its methods while giving research and editorial decisions room to develop in private.
