NPG Announces Results of Article-Sharing Trial
Nature Publishing Group (NPG) released the results of its article-sharing trial, which was developed to encourage researcher collaboration and give the public access to scientific content. The company will continue to offer on-platform sharing of full-text NPG articles using ReadCube’s enhanced PDF technology.For the past 12 months, subscribers to 49 NPG journals shared the full text of articles with colleagues who didn’t have a subscription via a shareable link enabled by ReadCube. Global media outlets and blogs also participated, providing readers with the links to full-text, read-only versions of original papers. Media reports of NPG articles drove the most traffic during the trial. The most popular news outlets were the BBC, The Guardian, The New York Times, Science magazine, and The Washington Post.
