April 13, 2017

App-Like Gadgets Personalize Research Views and Enable Automated Knowledge Creation by Enhancing Scientific, Technical and Medical Content

New features include full mobile responsiveness, design enhancements, an improved order history page, and the introduction of an ecosystem of gadgets – powerful apps that allow for sophisticated data augmentation of content.

“Gadgets will revolutionize the way research is done today,” stated Peter Derycz, CEO and President of Research Solutions, Inc. “Similar to mobile apps, gadgets are highly flexible and customizable tools for scientific research, capable of augmenting scientific documents with data and streamlining cumbersome research processes.”

The new Article Galaxy platform version has been introduced to selected customers in a phased approach starting on March 24, 2017. Initially, migration is optional and Reprints Desk will continue to support the current legacy platform until September 1st, 2017. Any existing order options used by customers today – such as IP and browser-based orders, online orders via www.reprintsdesk.com, email, OpenURL integration, and APIs interfaces – will not change.

Redesigned User Interface
The new Article Galaxy platform delivers a completely redesigned user interface with more friendly navigation capabilities, an enhanced technology infrastructure, improved order history and new functionalities, enabling quick look up of re-use rights, availability options and online mentions of journal articles.

Ecosystem of Gadgets
Debuting in this new version of the Article Galaxy platform, Reprints Desk’s ecosystem of gadgets will securely gather and enhance data from a variety of formats, such as bibliographic citations, table of contents and RSS feeds, PDF files, XML feeds, web content, and much more. An alternative to manual data filtering and extraction, gadgets are powerful apps capable of performing a particular function such as identifying protein structures from bibliographic information and instantly surfacing 3-D visuals, saving time for users and making data dramatically more usable.
