CCC and Ringgold Partner to Streamline OA Charges Processing
Copyright Clearance Center (CCC) integrated Ringgold’s Identify database into its RightsLink for Open Access in order to host and execute institution-specific pricing rules. Using Ringgold’s identifiers in CCC’s platform simplifies the collection, management, and reporting of publication charges for open access (OA) journals. The partnership allows institutions to calculate author charges according to pre-negotiated deals and access reporting that reflects consistent data.“Our Identify database provides RightsLink for Open Access with unique identifiers, and core metadata about institutions from all over the world,” says Jay G. Henry, Ringgold’s CMO. “Standard, institutional metadata is becoming more and more important as publishers and their authors must comply with funder mandates and report transactions inside and outside their respective organizations.” Source: Copyright Clearance Center
