Elsevier opens up APIs to third parties on new platform


Elsevier has launched SciVerse, which it describes as an innovative platform that integrates the company’s key products and encourages the scientific community to collaborate on the development of customised search and discovery applications. Elsevier has committed to releasing the APIs (application programming interfaces) for all of the content on SciVerse and will offer application development support tools on the site. At launch SciVerse will


include SciVerse Hub beta, a module that integrates ScienceDirect, Scopus and targeted web content from Scirus, Elsevier’s science-specific internet search engine. SciVerse Hub beta allows for a single search across


its integrated content with results ranked by relevancy and without duplication, saving research time. SciVerse Hub beta will include three search and discovery applications at launch: methods section search application; matching sentences application; and prolific authors application. These applications offer an example of the solutions that can be built using content APIs and were developed by NextBio, a provider of a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform for life sciences researchers, which includes ontology-based semantic tools. Elsevier will roll out its APIs


on SciVerse in Q4 of this year, including content APIs for ScienceDirect, Scopus, and SciVerse Hub beta. www.elsevier.com
