figshare Facilitates Collection-Building on Platform
figshare introduced Collections, a tool similar to Pinterest that allows users (researchers, publishers, and funders, etc.) to group academic research outputs. They can gather any data types from within figshare, including video, poster, and code, to create private or public Pinterest-like boards that can be updated at any time with new content.For example, publishers can use Collections to group the supplementary data for an article, funders can group all of the research outputs that are linked to a certain grant code, and institutions can group the outputs from presentations at conferences they’ve hosted. For more information, read the press release.
