RESOURCE: Elsevier reveals new layout for Article of the Future
The Article of the Future project is Elsevier’s “never-ending quest to explore better ways to create and deliver the formal published record”.
In the latest phase of this ‘quest’, the project team have worked with more than 150 researchers, authors, publishers and editors to come up with multiple prototypes for a new article design, with each one tailored to a specific subject area.
Following previous changes to improve in-article navigation and readability, all ScienceDirect articles have now been transformed using an interactive HTML5 format. Click here to see one in action.
