With hundreds of books to track and a distributed network of collaborators, it is necessary to have all of the books in one place.
The system allows users to create and to store metadata, to assign priority for acquisition and extraction, to assign book scanners and data extractors, to upload PDFs of scanned books, and to flag books for quality assurance review.
Role-based access determines which tasks a user can perform. Project leads have an interface that provides a birds eye view for all books stored in the system.
