Editorial Manager (EM) and Preprint Manager (PM) 8.2 are now in beta, and we need a few additional beta test volunteers. Beta testing is a great way to preview new features and enhancements in the 8.2 release, such as: enhanced automated Author and Editor reminders, customized PDF cover pages, and the ability to attach external files and files from “file inventory” to ad hoc emails. As a beta tester you’ll see first-hand how these features will work on your EM or PM site, without impacting your live data. And your feedback will help us perfect the product for final release.

But hurry: The EM/PM 8.2 beta test period will last for a few more weeks. For more information or to volunteer, email Betsy Hopkins, Aries Business Systems Analyst, at bhopkins@ariessys.com.
