Screenshot of Publisher Digital Asset Management System

Screenshot showing a publisher’s digital asset management system (in this case, BiblioVault.org) tracking “deliveries” of customized files to multiple (30+) vendors. It is important to integrate multimedia ebooks into these complex, automated systems. In this case, the book, Music on the Move, has multimedia included via the Fulcrum publishing platform. (“Not for sale” indicates that the book was transmitted to the vendor but is open access. Duplicate deliveries to the same vendor indicate re-uploads to address problems or corrections in the book file or metadata.) If the book were not open access, there would be even more deliveries listed. (Screenshot courtesy of Michigan University Press.)
