Abstract
The informational object authoring and distribution system functions to provide Value-Added Material Safety Data Sheets via the use of a centralized repository of uniquely identified, immutable Material Safety Data Sheets. This system automates the authoring, maintenance and distribution of the Value-Added Material Safety Data Sheets by using an Internet-based paradigm and a centralized repository of uniquely-identified, immutable data elements. The informational object authoring and distribution system provides a set of software modules that the manufacturers can use to author, maintain and distribute Material Safety Data Sheets and their customers, as members of the system of Value-Added Material Safety Data Sheets, can use to retrieve, maintain and distribute the Material Safety Data Sheets. The system's interconnectivity allows for the use of an Internet-based paradigm for the purchase and sale among members of the system of Value-Added Material Safety Data Sheets as commodities, and for reducing the burden costs among members of compliance with government regulations. In addition, the informational object authoring and distribution system can provide value-added services by providing advertising of services and products facilitating the interconnection of the manufacturers and manufacturer's customers with other members of the system of Value-Added Material Safety Data Sheets who are vendors, and who provide services and products related to the information and instructions contained in Value-Added Material Safety Data Sheets.
