Publishing technology
Technology that serves the work of scholarly publishing.
Harrowell designs, implements and improves the publishing systems, data and workflows that journals need to operate reliably today and develop with confidence tomorrow.
Technology with context
Platforms should strengthen the operation, not complicate it.
Journal technology is never isolated. It shapes editorial workflows, author experience, production handoffs, data quality, discoverability and the continuity of the published record.
Harrowell approaches technology as part of the complete publishing operation. We align systems with the people who use them, the data that moves through them and the standards the journal needs to maintain.
Controlled migration
Move the journal environment—not just the visible website.
A credible migration protects the publishing operation around the content. The project has to account for the files, metadata, people, settings and workflows that make the journal usable after go-live.
Source environment
Published content and files
Metadata, identifiers and URLs
Users, roles and permissions
Journal settings and integrations
Editorial and production workflow
Validation and go-live
Inventory and migration mapping
Configuration and test migration
Record, file and workflow checks
Authorised acceptance and cutover
Post-launch review and support
Technology capabilities
Infrastructure designed for publishing continuity.
OJS and PKP migration
Controlled migration from existing journal environments into OJS/PKP, covering journal configuration, content, files, user records, metadata, workflow mapping, validation and managed go-live.
Explore technology →Publishing platforms and workflows
Requirements, configuration and improvement for the systems that support submission, peer review, production, publication, reporting and editorial administration.
Explore technology →Metadata and integrations
Structured journal and article data, identifiers, reference quality, data flows and integration work that make research easier to discover, connect and maintain.
Explore technology →Continuity and development
Technology planning that protects the published record, supports operational resilience and creates a realistic route for future platform and service development.
Explore technology →OJS and PKP migration
A migration project, managed as a publishing transition.
Moving a journal to OJS/PKP means more than transferring content. It requires a complete view of files, users, metadata, journal settings, editorial workflows, integrations, permissions and the service experience that follows launch.
Harrowell plans each move through inventory, mapping, configuration, test migration, validation and controlled go-live. Data integrity, operational readiness and publishing continuity are built into the project from the start.
