Essentially, a technical publications library is a web-based knowledge management system to organize all the company's publications into a public collection that resides on a company's corporate website. A technical publication library, custom created by IP.com to meet the specific needs of the client, can include such publications as journal articles, conference presentations, disclosures, white papers, and other technical documents. Oftentimes, these documents are scattered throughout various departments, providing little or no value to the company because relevant materials cannot be searched throughout the company's many silos of information and retrieved easily in time to be used effectively whenever needed.

Managing the customized technical publications library is done through a web-based administration site. Access privileges can be granted or restricted on a user-by-user basis. Designated administrators are prompted when an action is required. This is an essential component to a generating a smoothly functioning work flow.

A technical publication library like this designed by IP.com conveniently includes secure access for the company executives to download robust reports on all document activity. This is extremely beneficial to publication authors, inventors, corporate marketing executives, and the company's technical personnel who can monitor interest in content and measure technology trends.]]> http://www.securinginnovation.com/2008/02/articles/innovation-management/what-is-a-technical-publication-library/ http://www.securinginnovation.com/2008/02/articles/innovation-management/what-is-a-technical-publication-library/ Innovation ManagementKnowledge ManagementTechnical Publications Library Tue, 12 Feb 2008 19:42:45 -0500 blog@ip.com (IP)
