PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -

Turpin Distribution is delighted to announce the introduction of its new Open

Access service for managing Article Processing Charges (APCs).

A major vendor in the journal fulfilment market for over 40 years Turpin has

supported its scholarly publishing clients with new services as the journal market

has evolved, embracing new technologies.

The Turpin system can manage all the complex administration surrounding

processing charges and payment collection including; single author; multiple

authors with allocations; third party advanced payment reconciliation; and

copyright status sharing to identify just some of the major servicing capabilities.

All transactional information is reported back to the publisher via the Turpin Web

Reports Portal providing up to date information 24/7.

Lorna Summers, Managing Director of Turpin said “I’m extremely pleased that we

are able to continue supporting our client publishers with new services to meet

the changing demands of the market. We are already working closely with our

clients to provide solutions for the efficient management of Article Processing

Charges (APCs). Turpin looks forward to assisting publishers in controlling their

OA administrative burdens such as billing and reporting so clients can continue to

focus on the creation and dissemination of intellectual property.”
