A Christmas Message from the Head of Account Development of Asia Pacific

Dear Customer,


With 2004 drawing to a close it’s an opportunity for us to look back at the events of the year. It’s certainly been a busy and interesting year for the Elsevier Singapore offices. Importantly we have had the chance to meet nearly all of our customers at the different Library Connect Events held across the Asia Pacific region.

With the aim of always putting the customer first, we have worked on strengthening our customer communication channels, such as the Asia Pacific newsletters, the local Asia Pacific websites, emails , direct mail campaigns and more. Likewise we have put greater emphasis on localizing materials for different countries to ensure effective communication with customers. We have also attended a number of conferences and exhibitions across the region and recently organized a series of Publisher Seminars in Greater China, providing a series of talks to faculty and students on Elsevier’s role as a publisher and the steps new authors can take to get published.

With 2005 in mind we are already beginning to plan our new series of activities for our customers. We are also very excited about the launch of Scopus, our new all science search and navigation tool, that apart from being the world’s biggest bibliographic database, offers powerful and innovative search and browse facilities across over 14,000 titles from 4,000 publishers. We look forward to being able to share more information with you about this and other new products in the New Year.

We wish you and your families a very pleasant and enjoyable holiday season.
 


With best wishes

Ms Alex Lankester
