Deliver your content in a new way with BrowZine.
Browsing journals and scanning articles is a leading way researchers stay abreast of trends in their field. How are patrons reading your journals?
With the decline of print, databases have become the primary way publishers deliver journals. But databases are designed for searching, not reading. BrowZine works by uniting articles from databases into complete journals, then arranging them by subject on a library-branded newsstand. The result is a revolutionary new way to browse, read and monitor scholarly journals. All in a tablet format your researchers will love.
What is BrowZine™?
BrowZine delivers thousands of academic journals to your iPad or Android tablet.
BrowZine works by organizing the articles found in Open Access and subscription databases, uniting them into complete journals, then arranging these journals on a common newsstand. The result is an easy and familiar way to browse, read and monitor scholarly journals across the disciplines.
