JCore, which is part of the HighWire Hosting solution, uses the world-class HighWire Open Platform to provide a powerful content ingestion, enrichment and publishing infrastructure for journal websites. It will provide AACP a modern site design that can be strategically configured in support of the Association’s publishing goals.
