STM publisher Elsevier, Netherlands, has announced that it has added more development-partner-tested features on its ScienceDirect platform. As an integral part of ScienceDirect's product development, the development partners' involvement is seen to have ensured that the new features mirror researchers' needs.
Through intelligent document matching, the Related Articles feature automatically displays citation information and the abstract - including a link to the full text - of content relevant to the article being accessed. This improves the discoverability of information and makes it easier for a researcher to find key information. To maximise search outcomes and eliminate unwanted results, a new Fast Search & Transfer (FAST) spell check function has also been integrated into ScienceDirect. It recognises spelling errors using a built-in dictionary.
As an added value to traditional abstracts, ScienceDirect is now indexing Graphical Abstracts of 30 chemistry titles. Particularly important to organic chemistry researchers, Graphical Abstracts help researchers to summarise the scope of a structure or reaction more succinctly than plain text.
