I am pleased to announce the formal publication of "Web-based Journal
Manuscript Management and Peer-Review Software and Systems"  _Library Hi
Tech News_ 19(7) (August 2002): 31-43.

In recent years, a variety of experimental and commercial systems have
been developed that facilitate the management and review of scholarly
manuscripts for electronic and paper publication. Among the established
and recent Web-based systems are:

*	AllenTrack* 
*	Bench>Press*
*	EdiKitSM
*	ESPERE
*	Journal Assistant*
*	Manuscript Central*
*	Rapid Review* 

For each, a brief overview is provided, as is a outline of the features
and functionalities of the system/service, contact information, Web site,
and vendor.

Electronic access to the article is available for subscribers via the MCB

Enjoy!
