IET announces the release of arXiv content in Inspec


The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) has announced that over 30,000 pre-print articles available in online repository arXiv will indexed in Inspec, the leading A&I database for physics and engineering by the end of the year. The addition of these articles will substantially increase the content held in Inspec, which currently holds over 16 million records, and deliver even greater access to cutting-edge research.


Inspec is the first engineering and


physics database to index arXiv records, which include open-access e-prints in a variety of disciplines such as Applied Optics, Physics, Astronomy, Circuits and Computer Science. By including arXiv content in Inspec, researchers will now benefit from Inspec’s highly-curated, world- leading thesaurus, allowing users to query the records in a way they have not been able to before.


Tim Hamer, Director of Knowledge at the


IET said, “The inclusion of arXiv records is a significant addition to Inspec’s already comprehensive database. This forms part of ongoing developments to the Inspec platform, which will make it easier for researchers to pin-point the exact content they need. Our expert team of indexers will bring 100s of person-years of knowledge invested in the IET’s thesaurus to arXiv’s pre-print content while the increased coverage and search functionality will enhance discoverability of arXiv’s open access articles. Combined with the Inspec’s existing content, which dates back to 1898, the arXiv content will help researchers develop an even greater understanding of the context of latest developments in their field.”

Peer review, simplified and streamlined


What if you could increase your profile among authors and decrease your time- to-market for critical scientific data?


With research moving more quickly and intense pressure from new (and traditional) competitors, the need for attracting and retaining the best authors is critical for publishers. With ScholarOne Manuscripts, you’ll be


able to balance your editorial team’s need for comprehensive information gathering with an author’s desire to submit quickly. You’ll have one solution that integrates


manuscript invitation, submission, real-time fee collection, file conversion, correspondence, tracking, reviewer management, decision making, reporting, and user data management, and which can also integrate with your print and online production.


Along with the end to end, customizable


workflow system, you also get the benefit of working with a qualified team of implementation, training, and support experts. Furthermore, with Reviewer Locator - the


capability in ScholarOne Manuscripts which compares manuscript submissions against Web of Science Core Collection to generate a list of experts as potential reviewers - you


can: l widen your reviewer pool beyond your known contacts:


l prevent reviewer fraud by using authors who have a known publication record in Web of Science; and


l decrease overall peer-review time and the need to approach multiple reviewers before finding the right fit. This means you can attract and retain authors while also letting your editors focus on the value by easing their administration burden. And with ScholarOne Manuscripts, your authors will be joining the more than 10 million authors submitting over 1.2 manuscripts annually.
