Annotum: An open-source authoring and publishing platform based on WordPress - Journal Article Tag Suite Conference (JATS-Con) Proceedings 2011 - NCBI Bookshelf
The process of authoring, reviewing, and publishing scholarly articles remains an expensive, time-consuming process that can require significant up-front investment and technical expertise. Coupled with lengthy review processes this can create delays of up to a year before new scientific findings are published. Annotum, a new, open-source, open-access authoring publishing tool based on the WordPress content management system, builds on the earlier work of the Public Library of Science's Currents publication and provides an easy-to use alternative to existing publishing systems that supports very rapid expert review and professional online publishing. Despite significant advances in most forms of publishing, from blogs to news sites and other user-generated web content, the process of authoring scholarly articles remains an expensive, time-consuming process that can require significant up-front investment and technical expertise.
Monty Python’s rebels ponder all they must replace if they kill the Romans The researcher rebellion against the closed research-and-publishing system, tallied most explicitly in a petition boycotting publisher Elsevier, continues to expand. (The Economist covers it here, and I covered the complaints last year in a feature.)

Probabilistic language models, auto-correction tools and scientific discovery. "Durgesh Kumar Dwivedi":http://network.nature.com/people/U56CB3E51/profile over on Nature Network just asked "Does anyone have any software or web address which corrects English grammar, preposition, edit and shortened the paragraphs?". This question brought to mind and idea that I had a few years ago. The idea is simple enough, use a large corpus of pre-vetted grammatically correct text as a training tool to compare sentences against. If you have enough example sentences, then every occurrence of every word in a given sentence will have a certain likelihood of occurring.

The Publishing Process—Launching a Book into Awesome! | Sourcebooks.com
Publishers work in different ways and run different calendars, so this explanation is pretty much from the Sourcebooks perspective, but most will have some form of large group introduction to future titles. For traditional book publishing companies, “launch” is often the first time that the whole company is introduced to the new books. It’s a fairly early look.

Academic reference management software for researchers | Mendeley
Until publishers begin attaching accurate metadata to their downloadable PDFs Mendeley will be a nonstarter.
Mendeley has virtually no information about what people are reading because the STM Publishers never through to add metadata to their PDFs. Now, beacuse of the massive number of PDFs that have already been published without metadata, it is too costly for the Publishers to go back and reenrich their PDFs. by Sep 6
