The evolution of scientific software and services landscape has evolved much like the Big Bang theory – expanding rapidly in its infancy, then cooling and forming what we recognize today as the standard offerings for buyers within the STM information industry. A major convergence involving scientific literature tools and workflows is now taking place, driven by efficiencies in user workflows and spending. This presentation, given at the Pharma-Bio-Med 2012 expo by Reprints Desk CEO Peter Derycz, explored this shift and how Reprints Desk’s ‘all-in-one’ scientific document management system Bibliogo and similar solutions are emerging to deliver these efficiencies.
