Description

At bepress we are passionate about developing based on the feedback we’ve received from our community. In 2018 we are building solutions in three areas that have often proved challenging for our users: showcasing more of your content, increasing your impact, and doing whatever we can to make your jobs easier. We’ve chosen these three development areas based on comments from the bepress user community, and we look forward to continuing to have customers pilot new features and provide real-time, honest feedback. This feedback leads to the development of the best possible features and products.

In this session we’ll be sharing more about our development philosophy, as well as sharing about recent and upcoming developments. Some of our 2018 projects include exploring new solutions to populate your repositories and faculty profiles, discoverability of your content and making available new ways to reflect and share your success, and delving more into accessibility, privacy and security, and researching areas that will enhance your experience with our platform, like interoperability of bepress products with other systems.
