Stanford University's HighWire Press, Inc. and ReadCube have announced the completion of an agreement to offer ReadCube Connect to publications hosted on the HighWire Open Platform.
The innovative HighWire Open Platform provides technology solutions for the scholarly community. ReadCube Connect is an interactive PDF viewer that integrates seamlessly into a publication's article pages, keeping readers on-site and engaged. This new agreement will enable leading publications on the platform to join a collection of prestigious publishers such as Wiley, ASHA and SciELO, in offering ReadCube's Enhanced PDF technology.
ReadCube Connect is optimised for streaming and uploads faster than a traditional PDF in the browser. It leverages existing investments in metadata with its interactive article enhancements including hyperlinked in-line citations and figures; annotations; clickable author names; instant access to supplemental content; advanced article analytics; social sharing; and altmetrics.
With ReadCube Connect, readers can save the enhanced article and any annotations made to the ReadCube Cloud Library, which enables offline access from ReadCube's free desktop and mobile applications. The suite of ReadCube Apps offers additional features to help researchers organise their academic literature, rapidly discover and access articles, discover new research via personalised recommendations, and build manuscripts with the SmartCite citation tool.
HighWire publishers with an interest in adding ReadCube Connect to their journal articles are encouraged to contact their HighWire Press representative.
