Sciety Increases Its Support for the Evaluation of COVID-19 Preprints
Sciety has added three new groups that evaluate COVID-19 preprints to its network: the Novel Coronavirus Research Compendium (NCRC), Rapid Reviews: COVID-19 (RR:C19), and ScreenIT. The blog post states, “There has been significant growth in research outputs relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for an efficient system to help readers navigate new results has become clear. Our three new groups have met this challenge by producing high-quality screenings, reviews and summaries of key findings, and Sciety has brought them all together in one convenient and accessible place.”Sciety has 11 other groups offering evaluations, with each group getting its own custom page for providing context about its process and contributors. Users can find a group’s activities through a search or on its dedicated page. “In this way, Sciety itself can be agnostic about the review models its groups choose to support, while offering a single, understandable interface for consuming the diverse range of content available.” For more information, read the blog post.
