Atypon took on its 400th employee this month. It has doubled in size since 2016 and is projecting continued growth, with plans to expand to 500 employees in 2019.
An expanded QA team is implementing new testing automation tools and stricter performance audits for speed, SEO, and accessibility for all new releases, upgrades, and site launches. The client services team has also grown, and Atypon has added software engineers to augment the continuous development of Literatum.
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) has selected Literatum as its new online publishing platform. In addition to its four journals – The American Journal of Audiology, The American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology, The Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, and Language, Speech and Hearing Services in Schools – ASHA will migrate their news magazine for clinicians and researchers and will relaunch their special interest group newsletters as a scholarly review journal.
