Medical scientific publisher Informa Healthcare, UK, has announced that with access to more than 170 peer-reviewed journals, the new Informa Healthcare site will have over 276,000 articles from leading pharmaceutical science and medicine journals. The new site seeks to provide users with a comprehensive collection of content, in both original article and review format, spanning the drug discovery and clinical medicine fields from bench to bedside. This includes a comprehensive and easy-to-use archive service.
The combination of Informa Healthcare's clinical medicine, allied health, life science, toxicology and pharmaceutical science journal portfolio on a single platform is expected to simplify the customer experience. All journal titles currently listed on informapharmascience.com and informaworld.com will be combined on the new InformaHealthcare.com site. The new site will offer the option of online trials, advanced searching, alerting and single article purchases.
The informahealthcare.com site will utilise the online content management and delivery system provided by Atypon Systems, Inc. The beta site is scheduled for release in summer 2009 and the complete transition will continue through to the end of this calendar year. There will be a dual-hosting period with the informaworld platform, which currently hosts the medicine content, through 2009 allowing for a gradual migration. The site will provide reports and statistics to help subscribers analyse usage.
Informa Healthcare is encouraging customer feedback throughout the transition process.
