Reprints Desk, Inc., a Research Solutions company and document delivery supplier for scientific, technical and medical (STM) information, has announced the immediate full-text availability of the article 'The Ultimate Sophistication: Reprints Desk Launches its Article Galaxy Widget,' created by independent research and advisory firm Outsell, Inc. Authored by Outsell VP & Lead Analyst Deni Auclair, the article has been licensed by Reprints Desk as an eprint and is now freely available online at http://info.reprintsdesk.com/widget101.
Launched in January 2015, the Article Galaxy Widget is a time-saving tool that provides web browser access to scientific, technical and medical (STM) research articles indexed by more than 50 popular search sites and discovery databases, like Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGATE, Web of Science and Scopus, as well as numerous publisher websites. Article Galaxy is already in use at dozens of research-oriented organisations across biotechnology, medical devices, pharmaceuticals, engineering, consulting and other research-intensive industries.
Researchers simply launch the Article Galaxy Widget as a browser bookmark while they are viewing any website that references published journal articles. The widget's intelligent user interface standardises the search and presentation of full-text articles, and can quickly source content from existing journal subscriptions, Open Access, tokens, past single article document purchases or time-limited rentals. The widget also features quick filtering by source type, instant pricing, and a 'more like this' function that identifies related scholarly papers.
Corporations, academic institutions, and government organisations around the world rely on Reprints Desk and its online platform Article Galaxy for legal, low cost access to full-text STM content.
