AIP Publishing, a division of the American Institute of Physics (AIP), has announced a partnership with UK-based publishing-specific software solutions provider Publishing Technology plc to build the next generation of AIP's Scitation, scheduled for launch in the fourth quarter of 2012.
The new custom platform will be developed using Publishing Technology's pub2web hosting solution. The new platform will enable AIP and its member societies to house an impressive portfolio of journals and conference proceedings as well as the Physics Today magazine and historical documents from AIP's Physics Resources Center.
Designed to put users at the center, combining a flexible and extensible architecture with sophisticated information commerce, leading-edge semantic technology and industry standards, the pub2web interface will provide the research community with new opportunities for collaboration and discovery. During the design phases, the user community will be engaged through focus groups, dialogue, training and usability testing. Authors, readers and librarians can expect a seamless transition, new interactive communities and an overall enhanced user experience tailored to their specific needs.
