Emerald Insight – platform upgrade

emerald_logo_new

Emerald Insight have completed their platform upgrade work this week. Prompted by customer feedback, this has resulted in:

  • Increased discoverability – thanks to enriched metadata and search engine optimization
  • Improved usability – due to simplification of the administration area and alignment with other academic publisher platforms
  • Enhanced search – as a result of advanced filter capabilities
  • Industry standard categorization – because of redefined subject taxonomies
  • Heightened security – owing to the implementation of latest access and security protocols
  • Plus an extended range of author and editor services, including downloads of published research and access to historic publication events such as citations in other publications

We have access to over 190 e-journals on the Emerald Insight platform, the titles are listed in our e-journal A-Z list and in the library catalogue.
