Summer 2024 Updates: Rental Communication, Searchable Drop-Down Options, and More

We're rolling out our latest updates, crafted to bring you next-level solutions for a better overall research experience.

Article Galaxy Updates

Updated Messaging for 3-Day Rentals For Increased Transparency

We’ve introduced revised messaging for our 3-Day Rentals to provide clear information about the inclusion of supplementary material. By clearly outlining these terms, we aim to reduce confusion and improve the overall user experience, providing accurate information both before and after placing their orders.

•    Pre-Order Messaging: Users will now see a notice before completing their order that reads, “Selecting the '3-Day Rental' does not include the delivery of Supplementary Material.” This ensures users understand what their rental includes before they finalize their purchase.
•    Post-Order Messaging: References to supplementary material will be removed from post-order communications for 3-day rentals, ensuring consistency and clarity.

Enhanced Drop-Down Options For My Reference Field In Order Form

The "My Reference" fields on Article Galaxy’s Order Form have been updated with new drop-down functionality. This upgrade now allows users to search for and select a reference from a list, scroll through options, or enter “Other” for values not included in the list.

The new searchable drop-down and manual entry options streamline the ordering process, saving users time and minimizing errors. This enhancement addresses the challenges of navigating lengthy drop-down lists, improving user experience and ensuring accurate billing information.

•    Searchable Drop-Down: Users can now quickly find and select the appropriate billing code from a list of 100-200 options by searching within the drop-down menu.
•    Manual Entry Option: If a required billing code is not listed, users can choose "Other" and manually enter the code, offering greater flexibility and completeness.
•    Billing Code Selection & Entry: This feature simplifies the process of selecting and entering billing codes to help maintain accurate billing information and reduce administrative overhead.

Expanded Re-Use Rights Web Service Capabilities For DOI & PMID Lookup Support

The expansion of our Web Service endpoint capabilities supports the lookup of re-use rights using DOI and PMID identifiers. This offers greater flexibility and convenience for customers and third-party partners by streamlining the re-use rights check process. This also aligns with industry standards, simplifies access to critical information, and increases user satisfaction by making workflows more efficient.

•    DOI and PMID Support: Our endpoint now accommodates re-use rights lookups using DOI and PMID identifiers, alongside the existing ISSN/YEAR options.
•    Greater Flexibility: Customers can utilize the most relevant and readily available identifiers, making the lookup process more efficient and user-friendly.
•    Improved Usability: This broadens our service’s capabilities, offering a more comprehensive and accessible solution for our customers’ needs.

Auto-Populated Email Address For Academic Price Discounts In Scite Integration

Now, the "Username" field automatically fills with the user's email address when moving from Scite to Article Galaxy, streamlining the login process. By reducing friction and removing barriers to entry, this feature improves user satisfaction and encourages more completed purchases, potentially increasing revenue.

•    Autofill Username: The "Username" field is automatically populated with the user's email address from Scite's URL, simplifying the login process.
•    Academic Discounts: Users logging in with their email addresses can access special academic pricing, boosting the likelihood of completing their purchases.
•    Integrated Workflow: Ensure a hassle-free user experience without additional steps with smooth integration into your existing workflows.

Increased Character Limit For Full Names During Article Galaxy Account Sign-Up Process

We've updated the Article Galaxy sign-up process to accommodate longer full names and include clear error messages when needed. This improves the user experience by fostering inclusivity and eliminating barriers, making the platform more welcoming and accessible.

•    Support for Longer Names: Users can now sign up with longer full names, such as "Christopher Michael," without encountering restrictive errors.
•    Improved Error Messaging: Clear and specific error messages explain any issues and how to resolve them, ensuring a smoother user experience.
•    Easier Registration: Our more inclusive and user-friendly sign-up process accommodates a wider range of usernames without compromising on clarity or usability.

Simplified Purchased Literature Management With Bulk Export PDFs From My Orders

Users can now bulk export PDFs from their completed orders in their My Orders section. This feature simplifies managing ordered literature by enabling users to download multiple PDFs at once, improving access to historical orders and overall efficiency.
