BIRMINGHAM, Ala., USA - July 28, 2010 - MetaPress(R), the world's largest primary hosting service for scientific, technical and medical content, announces the latest publishers to launch their electronic content management and hosting services via the MetaPress platform:

- National Council of State Boards of Nursing
- NetBiblo/Groupo Biblo

Tim Williams, Managing Director of Edward Elgard Publishing, said: "We were looking for a technology platform that would support our plans to build a collection of internationally recognized journals over the coming years. We were very keen to make it as easy as possible for libraries and their patrons to subscribe and use our journal content no matter where they are based. Librarians told us that MetaPress was a good choice, and we also found them to be responsive and helpful throughout the tender process. We very much look forward to partnering with MetaPress as our journal program grows and develops."
Research and Information Officer of The Open University, John Rose-Adams, explained why they decided to partner with MetaPress, saying, "Having surveyed the various options and solutions for hosting our journal content, only MetaPress offered what we required within the timescale we had. They have been extremely helpful, and we have always managed to resolve queries quickly and professionally, notwithstanding the time difference!"
In business since 2000, MetaPress became the industry's first content management system with dimensional navigation across a variety of content types with the release of MetaPress 2.0 in August 2006. As the world's largest primary source online hosting platform for more than 43,000 scholarly publications across the globe, MetaPress provides a comprehensive solution to Web publishing needs and offers an established way to publish titles electronically, regardless of existing content format.
