[GOAL] UCL Press uses JAMS submission/production services from MDPI

[Martyn Rittman]

Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to announce that UCL Press is using the JAMS submission 
system and production services from MDPI:

JAMS is a flexible, adaptable submission system with integrated 
production services for use by academic publishers. It offers 
flexibility, ease-of-use, and a fully integrated solution, and is based 
on the software used to operate MDPI’s portfolio of open access journals.

Ian Caswell, UCL Press Journals Manager, says “I am excited to see UCL 
Press and MDPI partner together to implement the JAMS submission system 
for all UCL Press journals. The system offered a flexible, efficient and 
straightforward solution for our processes from author submission to 
ready for publication. I am grateful for the valuable experience and 
support MDPI have offered and look forward to developing our programme 
with an effective submission system in place.” Dr Martyn Rittman, MDPI’s 
Publishing Services Manager, adds, “We are proud to support one of the 
UK’s premier university presses in their publishing operation. This is 
an excellent way for us at MDPI to share our experience and knowledge, 
and benefit the research community beyond our own journals.”

JAMS combines services that are kept separate for many publishers. The 
whole editorial process, production and invoicing (e.g. for open access 
article processing charges) are fully integrated into a single platform. 
This allows for extremely efficient manuscript processing, and is one of 
the reasons MDPI is able to maintain fast publishing times without 
compromising on quality: editors can clearly see where action is needed 
and publishers keep an overview of all the papers in their journals.

Best regards,
Martyn
