Ovid Partners with Springer Science+Business Media to Add Ebooks
Ovid Technologies (www.ovid.com), a part of Wolters Kluwer Health, announced that it has entered into a partnership agreement with Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) to offer more than 800 electronic medical and health sciences books from Springer on its ebooks platform, Books@Ovid.The books will be available via an annual renewable subscription or as a one-time purchase, which provides the medical organization the right to own the book in perpetuity. Key titles coming to Books@Ovid include AJCC Cancer Staging Atlas, Medical Informatics, and Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery, widely considered to be core resources in their respective disciplines. Content is expected to become available on the Books@Ovid platform beginning in 3Q. Books@Ovid combines premium content with search and discovery technology, including natural language searching. Since Books@Ovid is fully integrated with an institution’s e-resources, users can link directly to any other content resource referenced in a book. An expandable table of contents, back-of-the-book indexing, and recent platform enhancements simplify navigation. In addition, users always have access to a title’s most current edition. The addition of the Springer titles will more than double the total offerings currently on Books@Ovid. In addition to Springer, books from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, The McGraw-Hill Cos., Oxford University Press, and other publishers are also available. Source: Ovid Technologies
