KGL will process journal articles for Mary Ann Liebert’s entire portfolio via the Smart Suite platform. Manuscripts will undergo automated metadata validation, content identification, language evaluation, and style application using AI and natural language processing in the Smart Edit® module, XML creation and layout in Smart Compose®, and web-based author proofing via Smart Proof®. As each paper is systematically evaluated for quality, time to author proofs and online publication is significantly reduced.
Marianne Russell, President and CEO of Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. commented, “We are confident that entrusting our journal program to the workflow experts at KGL will enable us to optimize our processes and ensure exceptional service to our authors. KGL is deeply immersed in the journals market and the ideal partner to support our commitment to the things that matter—speed, quality, access, and exposure—combining personal attention with leading technology-enabled capabilities.”
Atul Goel, President of KGL added, “KGL has paved the way to achieving excellent quality and rapid turnaround of manuscripts by uniting human intelligence with sophisticated AI technology. Article submissions to the Mary Ann Liebert journal portfolio can now go from acceptance to author proofs with record-setting speed. We are proud that our evolved tools can empower Liebert to remain at the forefront of the biomedical sciences.”
KGL also supports peer review workflows across the publisher’s portfolio while sister company, Sheridan, has provided print and fulfillment services for Liebert journals for over 40 years.
