| | The Wine Society use QPM The Wine Society is the worlds oldest co-operative wine club with over 90,000 active members. Four times a year, the members receive a quarterly printed catalogue of the wines on offer. The Wine Society are now using our QPM service to create the pages for the catalogue, and a compilation time of weeks has been reduced to a few days. The information for the catalogue comes from their Librios Content Management System, which also has a link to the stock control system. As well as the main catalogue, there are smaller specialist lists which refer to the main list for a full description of each wine. We automatically generate page references from the smaller lists into the main catalogue, and we return the main catalogue page number for each wine to be fed back into the Librios system. SCHIN's Prodigy Knowledge Medical Guidance Publication SCHIN (Sowerby Centre for Health Informatics at Newcastle) have spent several years creating an online database of medical guidance for use by healthcare professionals. In 2005, a Librios system was chosen to manage this data because of its Knowledge Management capabilities. Prior to this Librios implementation, the master guidance data was held as Word files. DLxml was chosen to convert this Word data into structured XML to be loaded into the Librios online system. A printed version of the guidance was a requirement from the outset of this project, and we were also chosen to format the pages for the printed book. Because of the speed with which we could produce pages,it was possible to use the book page proofs to check the data conversion, and where necessary, go back to the original Word file, make amendments, and repeat the cycle. National Office of Animal Health Datasheet Compendium The National Office of Animal Health (NOAH) represents pharmaceutical companies who manufacture animal medicines, and, as one of their services, they publish a compendium of drug datasheets. Our team has produced this book for many years, and Word files updated by the individual companies were used as source data. In 2005 NOAH chose to install a Librios system to provide an online version of the compendium, and to provide consistent content management across all the participating companies. Our typesetting data was chosen as the source for an XML feed into the Librios system. Our role has been to generate suitably stuctured XML, and to format pages for print from the new Librios XML output. Each company submits a set of XML files, and receives back the formatted datasheets, together with a mini index generated from all its products. When all companies are happy with their pages, the book is collated for press and all the indexes are generated. University of Cambridge Statutes and Ordinances This 2000 page book defines the rules that govern the running of the University. We have set up a Librios CMS to hold the master data, and throughout the year the text is updated as required. In August, the book pages are generated to be printed by the University Press, and the bookmarked PDF files are made available online. The same Librios database also generates clean XML for feeding into the University Web Site. |
