Projects, Resources and Tasks

ARQ+ enables publishers to structure their content and projects into efficient types and workflows. The three main components within the system are Projects, Resources and Tasks.

Projects

Projects are collections of content and tasks; you can access your projects from the MY PROJECTS menu in the header of the system.

An example of a project could be a book, report or journal issue. Projects can be open(public) so everyone can access them, or they can be restricted to particular users or user groups.

Resources

Resources are uploaded documents or collections of metadata and can be part of projects. You can access resources by using the quick search or by visiting a project page.

An example of a resource could be an author manuscript, a cover image, or a contract.

Tasks

Tasks are assigned to users within the system and normally indicate that action needs to be performed. Projects can have a project plan attached to them and the project plan is comprised of individual tasks. You can see all your currently assigned tasks from the MY TASKS page.
An example of a task might be “Review manuscript submission”
