Sheridan pledges continued support for Society for Scholarly Publishing membership growth through sponsorship of printed materials

October 18, 2017 – Wheat Ridge, CO – Sheridan will continue to provide printing services for the Society for Scholarly Publishing’s (SSP) membership and informational resources again for 2018.  Sheridan has renewed its agreement for in-kind printing services in exchange for various sponsorship benefits. Sheridan was selected in an open RFP process last year for their team-based customer experience, on-time delivery, and stringent quality requirements. The materials will be printed in their Hanover, Pennsylvania facility which offers high-quality print production; offset, digital and print-on-demand capabilities; and provides exceptional customer service.

Printed materials are still critically important to SSP for communicating the benefits of membership as well as resources for pursuing a career in scholarly communications.  For 2018 Sheridan will produce a membership postcard, membership brochure and an informational pamphlet highlighting the careers available in scholarly communications.

“Sheridan has been a loyal supporter and sponsor of SSP for many years. We sincerely appreciate their ongoing support and are eager to work with Sheridan for the production of our member recruitment materials, said Melanie Dolechek, SSP Executive Director.  “SSP’s future is dependent on reaching out to and engaging the next generation of scholarly publishing professionals. High-quality materials will help us positon SSP as the place where professionals can connect with people, resources, and content for their professional and organizational advancement.”
