Elsevier Further Enhances Its Article Page Design on ScienceDirect
From Elsevier:
Elsevier announces the next step in enhancing its article page design on ScienceDirect.
Following initial changes made earlier this year, moving away from the traditional linear article by improving in-article navigation and readability, the article has now been further transformed into an interactive HTML format.
As online research continues to evolve, researchers are finding a greater need to employ new publication, search, and discovery tools that help streamline their workflow and improve expediency. The recently launched enhancements address these challenges, offering researchers more interactive ways to efficiently pursue online research communication. These recent enhancements include:
+ Downloadable tables and PowerPoint presentations that encourage re-use and citation
+ The ability to view references with their abstracts, without losing place in the current article
+ Additional context from related and citing articles as well as from external databases
+ Discipline-specific content, interactive visualization and workflow applications
