Loose-leaf Publications

 

Turpin has unparalleled experience in the management of loose-leaf publications looking after over 60 loose-leaf titles.  We offer two management options – the subscription model and the standing order model.

 

Features of both models include:

  • Publishers can select a printing and/or hosting partner, work with traditional printers, or using print-on-demand.
  • Generation of order triggers for PoD print and FTP access files for online content.
  • Main works and/or supplements dispatched from your printer or our warehouse.
  • Storage management and reporting on book blocks, binders, tabs, published supplements, etc.
  • Fulfilment and reporting for online content, CD-ROMs, diskette versions sold as standalone or with printed products.
  • Recording dues for main works and supplements.
  • Holding hard copy masters in our library to enable page photocopying to satisfy replacement requests.
  • Trigger PoD instructions for late orders.

Specifically for the subscription model:

  • Renewal and reminder notices dispatched according to your preferred timetable.
  • Calendar year and “any time start” (rolling) renewals are accommodated.
  • Management of replacement and catch-up/back starts.

Specifically for the standing order model:

  • Separate credit or pro-forma/bill-me invoices may be raised for each supplement as it is published.
  • Prices may be varied from supplement to supplement.
  • Publishers can allow customers to purchase only the main work with no supplementsallowing for multiple pricing options across the supplements and years of publication.
