Érudit has developed an open software for editorial production called Tournesol, which centralizes the various stages of thoroughly marked up digital publication and meets international dissemination requirements (Érudit Article, as well as NLM, Dublin Core, etc.). Érudit Article is an XML markup format tailored for academic papers that allows both to structure documents and to ensure their wide dissemination across various search tools. The Érudit Article format is used for journals disseminated on the Érudit platform as well as on CAIRN and Persée.
Used by Université de Montréal’s digital research production team, at the Centre d’expertise numérique pour la recherche, Tournesol has also been implemented at the Université Laval library as well as at the University of New-Brunswick’s Centre for Digital Scholarship.
