Springer Nature has launched a one-year pilot with PaperHive, an annotation system and copyright-compliant collaborative research platform. The partnership focuses on increasing reader engagement of university students with academic literature in various fields including biomedicine, mathematics, physics, and chemistry. The pilot phase comprises books and textbooks from Springer and Springer Spektrum, a publisher for classical and digital educational media in the field of natural sciences and mathematics in the German-speaking region.
PaperHive's annotation, group conversation and sharing capabilities will be enabled for book and textbooks titles. Students and tutors will be able to discuss, ask and answer questions, solve text-specific exercises, share opinions and ideas in the margins of the selected titles.
PaperHive is a cross-publisher collaborative research platform enabling citable in-document discussions of academic texts. The platform transforms reading from an isolated activity into a process of active collaboration, helping researchers and students communicate. PaperHive is used in e-learning, proofreading, post-publication peer review, publishers' marketing campaigns.
