In the third episode of this four-part series, Stephen McGroarty, Editorial Manager at UN Publications, chats about the workflows and collaboration that make UN Publications’ iLibrary platform possible. First, Stephen discusses his current role managing several teams that contribute to publications on the global trade data site Comtrade, the recently relaunched e-commerce site, and UN iLibrary, an online subscription platform of United Nations content. He digs into the editorial and organizational processes for research from the UN’s many agencies, highlighting the extensive review procedure each publication goes through to ensure the information is vetted and accurately categorized. He also shares the rigorous publication schedule of UN Publications and provides a walkthrough of how to navigate iLibrary. Despite all iLibrary content being freely available to everyone, Stephen underscores the benefits of subscribing to the platform, such as the ability to save titles or searches and download, print, or share files of the publications.
