OBS Response to COVID-19

Rockport, Massachusetts, March 13, 2020 – Open Book Systems, Inc. continues to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and is taking appropriate measures to ensure the health and safety of our employees and their families, as well as continuing to offer uninterrupted service to our customers.

Since Tuesday, March 10, our staff and vendors are working remotely and at home. Employees are working securely. We prepared for this eventuality and have not experienced interruption in business. We anticipate no delays in project deliverables due to COVID-19 and our contingency planning includes the ability to ramp up capacity to meet our customer’s needs quickly in this dynamic environment.

With a global network of publishing partners built up since 1982, we are ready to leverage the internet to help educators with their suddenly vital distance learning needs and medical publishers with their need to communicate lifesaving information immediately. We can work in any language using translation memory. 

We are adhering to all official government guidance and travel advisories for restricted regions and taking the following additional precautions:

  • Telecommuting.
  • Working with our employees to exercise caution and take appropriate health and safety measures.
  • Eliminating face-to-face meetings until further notice.
  • Limiting business and personal travel. 

As the situation continues to evolve and additional government guidance is issued, we will adapt our approach as necessary.
