PubMan - the eSciDoc Solution for Publication Management: PubMan supports scientists and institutes in the management and the digital curation of their publications. This solution addresses all disciplines and focuses on the target groups of scientists, local librarians and local IT. Due to the heterogeneous policies, cultures and workflows of the Max Planck Institutes, customization and configuration options throughout the solution's features are of major importance.

With PubMan, the Max Planck Digital Library (MPDL) develops a service-oriented, flexible-to-use institutional repository software. Since 2009, the repository is introduced at the Max Planck Institutes and the publication data are gradually migrated from the current repository eDoc to the central installation of PubMan for the MPG. The software is a solution within the eSciDoc project, which is a joint open-source project by the MPDL and the FIZ Karlsruhe.

PubMan Community

The development of PubMan, as any other eSciDoc solution, is very community-driven.

Based on an overall participation concept, Early Adopters and Pilot institutes from the Max Planck Society as well as projects dealing with discipline-specific extensions for PubMan are closely involved into the software development life cycle.

The communities represent the variety of scientific fields within the Max Planck Society and the different interest groups (scientists, librarians, local IT) for an institutional repository.
