Ovid’s QUOSA in-booth presentation also focuses on QUOSA Information Manager™ and QUOSA Virtual Library™, as well as on how the entire suite improves workflow efficiencies for archive, current awareness, medical affairs, and patent review applications. According to Malcolm MacKenzie, President of QUOSA, “Browser Plus frees users from time-consuming tasks of acquiring and managing PDFs while still using their browser as the preferred application interface.  At the same time it is seamlessly integrated with both QUOSA Information Manager’s full-article organization function and QUOSA Virtual Library.”
