Silverchair and Royal Society Publishing announced the launch of their new digital library on the Silverchair Platform.
The new site is home to Royal Society Publishing’s extensive archive dating back to 1665, including ten leading journals specializing in cross-disciplinary research. The site delivers a modern user interface, improved visibility and discoverability, and analytics tools for actionable business intelligence while simultaneously future-proofing the platform for the ever-changing landscape of open access and AI. The new design offers a more seamless user experience and exposes more article metrics directly on the article page for easy reference.
“The Royal Society Publishing corpus is an important resource for researchers globally, and we’re delighted to see it given the first-class design and infrastructure treatment it deserves,” said Will Schweitzer, Silverchair CEO. “It has also been a privilege to welcome the Royal Society team into our vibrant client community as we face new challenges and opportunities to collectively advance scientific achievement.”
Royal Society Publishing Director Rod Cookson said, “We look forward to publishing the journals of the Royal Society on the Silverchair platform. This is a time of significant change in how information is shared and collated, and with Silverchair, we have an excellent partner for meeting the challenges that will present in the years to come.”
