September 1st, 2010 New Platform for ScienceDirect and Scopus
Effective August 28, ScienceDirect, Scopus and the targeted web content from Scirus have been integrated within one platform – SciVerse. Over time, SciVerse will form the core of an ecosystem in which researchers and librarians work with publishers and developers to build collections of applications targeted to the specific interests and workflows of researchers. By combining trusted content with an expanding universe of tools that accelerate search and discovery, SciVerse will increase the value you derive from subscribed content.
Go to www.sciverse.com to access the SciVerse platform.
The home page for SciVerse is the new SciVerse Hub beta from which users can access:
- Search results across ScienceDirect, Scopus and scientific web content, ranked by relevance and without duplication
- Three free applications that enhance search and discovery for your researchers, allowing them to:
- Search only the methods/experimental procedures sections of the articles in ScienceDirect
- See search results in full sentences to help find the right content faster
- See a list of the most prolific authors for a given search topic
