3.5 Publication and catalog
The public catalog – the grouping of books available in various formats to the
reading public from the press home page – can be managed in a number of ways.
OMP includes an overall Catalog Management interface which you can find from
the Management -> Catalog navigation bar. You will also find a Catalog Entry
tool available to you for each individual submission, on all of the submission’s
pages (see fig. 3.13).
Figure 3.13: Open the Catalog Entry of a submission
Books can be sorted by category and series, both in the Catalog Management
interface, and also on the main home page once published. Authors may as-
sign their original submissions to various categories and series, and editors can
change these assignments at any time.
Managing individual catalog entries
The Catalog Entry management tool (see fig. 3.14) consists of Monograph and
Catalog tabs, as well as additional tabs for each of the publication formats (for
eg., trade paperback, epub, pdf, etc.). The additional tabs will appear once you
have added a publication format in the Publication Formats step of the production
stage.
Use the Monograph tab to modify the book’s metadata. This includes title,
summary, contributors, coverage, and additional refinements like language, key-
words, and supporting agencies. Here you will also be able to specify/modify the
submission type (the submission type is usually one of ’image’, ’text’, or other
multimedia types including ’software’ or ’interactive’).
Use the Catalog tab to modify the book’s catalog information. This includes a
book cover image, audience information, information on representatives (such as
any agents or suppliers) who are not direct members of the press, and publication
formats.
The individual publication format tabs can be used to configure the format
itself and make it available on the public catalog. Much of this information can
also be disseminated through ONIX extracts.
