Agenda 1. What is SciVerse? 2. Why SciVerse and platform launch? 3. SciVerse Solutions 4. What’s the latest and greatest in SciVerse?

The problem isn’t just having too much information… …It’s about accessing the right information in an efficient and effective way

SciVerse empowers the research community to accelerate science by opening ScienceDirect & Scopus content APIs for third-party application development, enabling intelligent search and discovery across integrated content from ScienceDirect, Scopus and the scientific web

Open to accelerate science

SciVerse Solutions ScienceDirect, Scopus & SciTopics SciVerse Hub SciVerse Applications Developers Home

Dedicated Image Search in SciVerse ScienceDirect

More interoperability: Scopus key author data and citation information directly connected to the ScienceDirect article

Related reference work articles

Scopus Author Evaluator

SciTopics offers distilled, authoritative and up-to- date research summaries on a wide range of scientific topics.

The New SciVerse Hub features one search across a single index of ScienceDirect, Scopus, SciTopics and web content with de-duplicated results

Icons show the source of the search results. SciVerse’s search syntax supports Google searches, ScienceDirect and Scopus searches by automatically translating those queries.

At the launch of SciVerse, 3 free Applications were included.

Recently, a Developers Home was added. Here Developers can find information how to build applications.

Application example 1: Methodology section search application for full- text articles

Application example 2: Sentence matching application efficiently assesses search results and displays query words in the full sentences where they appear

Application example 3: Prolific author search application finds the most “prolific authors” publishing articles about search terms, linking into articles by that author within Scopus.

Application example 4: Table Download application allows you to export HTML tables from an article into CSV format, to use the data in Excel or similar software.

Application example 5: eReader format application allows you to convert a ScienceDirect article into ePUB or Mobi e-reader format (used by iPhone, Amazon Kindle, Sony etc.)

Application example 6: applications meant for specific subject fields or specific groups of researchers

Customer feedback on SciVerse Applications What they liked:What they would like: ScienceDirect Top 25 App My WorkFlow Search QuantiFind Methods Search “I was able to quickly locate some new things happening in my discipline, and also just outside of my expertise. The app was simple and returned results in no time at all.” Assistant professor, Swinburne Univ. of Technology Australia “ Having no control on the filters, I could find only a small fraction of the results of my interest.” Researcher, Italian National Agency for New Technologies, Energy & Sustainable Econ. Development “ Time needed to find new microwave synthesis of some compounds 6-8 hours. After using the application: minutes.” Post doctorate researcher, Institute of Chemistry Timisoara of Romanian Academy “ I would have used a "filter by topic" (e.g. neuroscience) if available. “ Post doctorate researcher, Weizmann Institute of Science from Israel
