ENCINO, Calif., March 14, 2019 — Research Solutions, Inc., (OTCQB: RSSS), a pioneer in cloud-based workflow solutions for R&D driven organizations, and its wholly-owned subsidiary Reprints Desk today announced the launch of the Article Galaxy Gadget Store. Powered by Reprints Desk’s Article Galaxy research platform, the Gadget Store provides access to a first of its kind library of science applications, called Gadgets, designed for research and scientific experimentation.
Seventy percent of the top 25 pharmaceutical companies and small to medium sized businesses use Reprints Desk’s award-winning Article Galaxy platform for literature access and discovery. With the launch of the Gadget Store, Article Galaxy’s research engine is now available to individual researchers and scientists for the first time.
“We created the Gadget Store to help researchers improve discovery and save time,” said Peter Derycz, President and CEO of Research Solutions, Inc. From document delivery to reference management to lab tools, our customers can choose the Gadgets they need for the specific task at hand. The Gadget Store lets scientists keep all their research in one place—with easy access to scientific content and data—without ever leaving their workflow. As a result, our customers report time savings of more than 50 percent.”
Users can search for Gadgets by keyword or browse popular Gadget categories, then add the selected Gadgets to a user-friendly dashboard. Just like consumer apps, Gadgets run on a desktop or mobile web browser.
Common Gadget categories include:
- Search and discovery
- On-demand literature access
- Workflow and productivity
- Lab and visualization
- Biomedical research
- Journal table-of-contents feeds
“Gadgets are more than the sum of their parts,” said Derycz. “For example, users can use Gadgets in concert with each other to obtain even deeper insights and truly personalize their workflows.”
New Gadgets will be added to the platform on a regular basis. Across categories, Gadgets are aimed at accelerating scientific discovery, improving library workflows, and optimizing lab productivity. A few examples include:
- Document Delivery Gadget – enables users to order journal articles or book chapters 24/7
- Open Access Finder – helps users to identify Open Access content quickly
- PubMed Searcher – combines a PubMed Search with pricing and availability information
