Scientific information and services provider FIZ Karlsruhe and DeepDyve Inc., an online rental service for scholarly and professional research articles, have announced an agreement to offer DeepDyve's innovative article rental capability to FIZ AutoDoc's clients representing international market leaders from the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, as well as large patent offices and research institutes.
Beginning in March 2014, FIZ Karlsruhe will include the option to rent DeepDyve articles directly from its document delivery platform, FIZ AutoDoc. While the customers will continue to enjoy the ability to order full-text PDF documents, they will now have the option to seamlessly rent the articles from DeepDyve at a more affordable price. The rented articles will be available for a 30-day period and can be viewed through a browser repeatedly until its expiration date. However, to ensure that no copyright is violated, these articles can neither be printed nor processed in any other way. FIZ Karlsruhe customers will enjoy direct access to DeepDyve through their standard FIZ AutoDoc login without any additional setup.
With over 10 million rentable articles from nearly 10 thousand peer-reviewed journals, DeepDyve has the most comprehensive collection of authoritative documents in the industry through its partnerships with leading academic publishers, including Reed Elsevier, Springer Science+Business Media, and John Wiley & Sons.
