Customer Case Studies
Bringing historical archives out of the basement
Accessible Archives envisioned providing web access to notable 18th and 19th century writings. These historically valuable writings include The Pennsylvania Gazette 1728-1800 ("The New York Times of the 18th century"), county histories, full issues of Godey's Lady's Book, The Liberator, 19th century African American newspapers, and various newspapers' accounts of the Civil War. more
ASUG - Americas' SAG Users' Group
Delivering Value to Members
ASUG has had a rich trove of information on its website. However, an analysis of search results showed that many of the web pages were being underutilized. Moreover, a high percentage of searches by ASUG members were unsuccessful. more
Enhancing eldercare resources
With literally hundreds of thousands of health articles and service provider directory listings, in radically different formats from a variety of sources, the AssistGuide benefited from both programming and editorial services offered by Access Innovations. They needed to create a comprehensive but easy-to-use web portal for caregivers. more
Distributing news with near-zero latency and pinpoint filtering
Per Acquire Media’s Stewart Clark, “NewsEdge users have had to rely on antiquated technology. The next phase will be to move the customers onto a more robust and flexible platform.” To operate with the extreme efficiency and accuracy required in the news aggregation business, this new platform would require a thorough integration of the various classification codes (GICS, ICB, IPTC, NAICS in addition to NewsEdge’s) into a single filtering system. more

Improving access for 25 years
In 1984, Consumers Union came to Access Innovations seeking help to convert their monthly flagship magazine, Consumer Reports, into a digital format suitable for the newly emerging digital content market place. more
Keeping up with an ever-changing technical vocabulary
As engineering literature proliferates, it both reflects the existence of new engineering fields and topics, and at the same time is instrumental in their development. As a result, the Ei Thesaurus suffered from significant gaps - gaps that can lead to customer complaints and lost revenues. Additionally, any project to update an integral tool had to fit into tight publishing deadlines. more
EPRI (Electrical Power Research Institute)
Unlocking the potential of a body of research
In 1992, EPRI recognized the need to catalog the thousands of research reports accumulated since its founding in 1973, as well as a stream of new reports and related documents. With the development of Internet technologies and dissemination opportunities, the Institute also saw a increased revenue potential... more
International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans (IFEBP)
Just what's needed from 350 HR resources

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE)
Increasing editor productivity and user satisfaction
IEEE needed to create a five-year update to its thesaurus. The thesaurus is used both in indexing the IEEE publications and in enabling improved searching of IEEE's vast repository of published research and other documentation. The new taxonomy would also be used to structure the content for improved navigation and repurposing, designed to improve membership retention and increase revenues. more
Processing up to 3,000 new articles a day
The IEEE Indexing Group is responsible for daily processing from 200 to 3,000 new research articles for the Xplore online delivery platform, generating the metadata needed for each article. more
Making valuable research accessible
The continuing success of Kimberly-Clark Corporation (K-C) has depended largely on its extensive research activities. In turn, that research depends largely on past research, documented in the research reports of K-C’s research scientists and engineers. However, in the early 1990s, these reports were mostly in print form and were difficult to search through. Making search more difficult was the sheer volume of reports, accumulated over several decades of innovative experimentation and detailed research by K-C researchers. more
NLB (National Library Board, Singapore)
Making library treasures accessible
Singapore libraries and archives possess rich physical and digital collections on Singapore, South East Asia and Asia in general, in four languages. NLB's mandate is to provide online access to both existing collections and new information created by Singaporeans in a variety of publication types, many outside the country. Data Harmony tools play an integral part in classifying and identifying key concepts in these information items. more
A jumpstart to the human indexer's brain.
Now, in addition to current updates, it is possible to find out what happened in Paris (France or Texas), over the past week, the past month, or even the past year, simply by going online. This vast potential for article storage, however, carries its own set of complications. Online searches for newspaper articles often yield a flood of erroneous hits and useless links. Discouraged readers who look to newspapers for information begin turning elsewhere for the news. more
NICEM (National Information Center for Educational Media)
Including media products of 20,000+ producers
The NICEM database is widely regarded as the world’s most comprehensive audiovisual database and a crucial reference tool for librarians, media specialists, training directors, teachers, university faculty, and researchers. Access Innovations provides all the abstracting and indexing to maintain, enlarge, and update the database. more
Helping departments "speak the same language"
Presbyterian Health Plan service representatives were having difficulty finding the information they needed... Each Presbyterian Health Services department had a different method for categorizing the documents that were mainly (but not entirely) in its domain; these methods often left out key categorizations and were inconsistent with each other. more
Judged Best Overall Health Internet Site
Steve Case, the founder of AOL, saw a need to put consumers at the center of their own healthcare. He realized that he could accomplish this by creating a website where people could search for detailed, authoritative health information. The website he created, RevolutionHealth.com, needed a comprehensive database of authoritative articles on health topics, as well as an extensive searchable directory of health providers. more
Moved to set a standard
Special Libraries Association (SLA) members were having problems finding the information they needed on the SLA website – an ironic state of affairs for an organization of information management professionals. more
15 words for rain
The people at The Weather Channel® have a word for rain – in fact they have more than a dozen words for rain – drizzle, mist, sprinkle etc. They’re in the weather business so that’s a good thing. It’s not a good thing to have a lot of different terms for the same thing when you’re trying to find.... (more)
