We support publishers in enhancing their author services, enabling them to offer seamless open data and supplemental materials sharing as part of their submissions processes.
A seamless repository solution for supplemental publication content
Figshare integrates with major editorial systems, enabling you to offer seamless open data and supplemental materials sharing as part of your submissions process.
Collate supplemental publications content in a custom branded repository, with the ability to clearly link additional outputs to and from the final published manuscript.
Empower your authors to publish more than just their final paper and enable them to share their research data and other supporting research materials in a FAIR way.
Take the complexity out of compliance for authors looking to comply with open research policies, including those from the OSTP, NIH, UKRI and ARC.
"Open data initiatives are revolutionising research, accelerating progress and making findings more robust. Our partnership with Figshare allows more authors to easily engage with Open Science, making their research more discoverable and allowing others to build on it, furthering the creation of knowledge."
How leading publishers are embracing open data
Open data and data sharing is landing highly on the agendas of stakeholders across the research ecosystem. Research institutions, funders and scholarly publishers are all mobilizing in different ways as they formulate approaches to the changing landscape and expectations.
This blog talks through some of the recent developments we’ve seen in the world of scholarly publishing when it comes to data sharing and showcases some examples of leading publishers that are moving beyond simply requiring a data availability statement and are instead embracing open data, evaluating data sharing practices and experimenting with innovative approaches to encourage data reuse.
Drive the discoverability of your supplemental content with a custom-branded portal
- Support for custom domains - portals can be on a Figshare subdomain e.g publisher.figshare.com, ensuring a seamless user experience and branding consistency.
- Embed widgets of your supplemental content within your journal platform - using the Figshare viewer, content can be embedded in your articles, removing the need for downloading third party software.
- Integrate Figshare with your submission workflows - ensuring that authors looking to share their research data openly are supported with an intuitive process.
- Showcase and understand the reach and influence of your supplemental materials - with increased discoverability and usage metrics like Altmetric Attention Scores, citations, views and downloads.
- Configurable groups to organize your portfolio - publishers can create groups for each journal or subject area with custom URLs and branding, making discipline or journal specific data more discoverable.
