Researchers who post a preprint to Research Square can now access AJE author services and Research Square videos to improve their manuscript and better communicate their findings. After the launch of the multidisciplinary platform in Fall 2018, Research Square has seen record uptake and now hosts more than 3,200 preprints, making it the world’s fastest growing preprint platform.
Authors can choose from AJE English language editing, and manuscript, figure and table formatting services to improve their manuscript’s readability while they wait for community feedback. Research Square videos let authors promote their research to a wider audience by providing a synopsis in a 1-minute overview ‘video byte’ or a 2-3 minute animation known as a video abstract.
The addition of author services that can improve and better position early stage research toward publication is a step forward for preprints.
Since 2004, AJE has provided manuscript preparation services to help researchers successfully communicate their work. Having edited over 700,000 manuscripts, AJE claims to be the world’s largest author services provider.
Research Square will continue to add existing services to the platform such as editorial badges in integrity, reproducibility, and statistics. Badges will allow preprint authors to demonstrate the quality of their article to editors and reviewers and speed up the time it takes to peer review.
