June 16, 2020 – Hanover, PA – Sheridan PubFactory is excited to announce a new partnership with industry-leading analytics and reporting specialist Scholarly iQ (SiQ). This addition to its expanding network of partner associations enables the launch of a dedicated Reporting and Business Intelligence Platform for PubFactory, offering the opportunity for PubFactory publishers to gain important insights into how and where their content is used.
