AOL publishers had to think about reporting as well as the page itself. This three-page tracking document discusses URL construction, WebStats, ASPP, Media Metrix and Rainman reporting. It is a small behind-the-scenes snapshot of how publishing teams were asked to measure channels and coordinate a launch.

This archive contains a full 334-page Eprise Participant Server Event Reference, copyrighted 2000–2001. It is developer documentation for the publishing platform, with events organized as a technical reference. Its presence in this collection is documented; the file alone does not establish exactly where AOL used it.

Before publishing meant opening a browser CMS, AOL had Rainman. This French-language manual from September 1998 walks through pages, links, lists, mini-icons and images inside the service. The 32-page document also covers RM Grinder and ART Press. These are original pages from the manual, showing the tools and layouts publishers worked with—not a recreation of the interface.

There was a lot happening behind that monthly AOL charge. This 112-page Billing System Overview was written to introduce managers and employees to the system’s general capabilities. The archived copy is document version 3.1, dated April 3, 2000. It is an internal systems overview, not a member billing statement.

A snapshot of the PSO Tools menu, with links for RM Grinder & ART Press, Rainman Tool, Visual Publisher Designer and other publishing resources. The purple layout and folder-style list are preserved in this original screenshot.

The PSO Support screen collected help documents and technical resources behind a simple two-column menu. Visible choices include general information, help docs and FAQs, Rainman & Cher2, and Stratus/Advanced Publishing.

The PSO Internal Software Library listed publishing utilities in a familiar AOL file-library window. The screenshot shows upload dates, subjects, download counts, and the Read Description, Download Now and Download Later controls.

PSO Online brought publishing support into an AOL-style window, complete with department links, search, current tool status and staff contact options. This screenshot preserves the off-campus landing page.

A look at the AOL Publishing Systems welcome screen. Publishing Support Operations offered separate On Campus and Off Campus entry points, with access instructions displayed right inside the AOL window.
