ReView’s refreshingly simple user interface, combined with River Valley’s intimate knowledge of scholarly content, gave us the confidence to choose River Valley over the competition

Chief Information Officer, American Physical Society

RVPublisher is a sophisticated XML/MathML content editing system that allows the editorial staff of Physics to rapidly create, update, and publish articles with a push of a button while maintaining tight deadlines and without concern about the underlying markup. Working with RVT, we have been able to finely tailor the system to our very specific technical requirements and worklfow.

Co-founder, BioRxiv

We are delighted that this most recent integration between submission systems extends the options available to authors of scientific papers. The transfer of manuscripts into and out of bioRxiv is an immensely popular feature of the server and it has been a pleasure to work with River Valley’s team to bring the underlying technologies to even more journals.

Former Director of Community Engagement & Support, ORCID

The implementation of ORCID’s review functionality in River Valley’s platform gives reviewers an easy way to get credit for their work, while retaining full control of what they want uploaded to ORCID. Thanks to River Valley for setting up this integration.

Executive Editor, GigaScience

In our seven years of pushing the boundaries of scientific publishing, our biggest frustration has been trying to work around legacy publishing obstacles. Working with River Valley Technologies – with their state-of-the-art, forward-thinking platforms – will finally allow us to put all our new ideas into practice.

If you have semi-structured content – like humanitarian standards – to be made available both digitally and in print, consider creating the digital version first. RVT’s ‘XML-first’ publishing approach lets you do just this, and structuring your content early opens a range of possibilities.
