IEEE Xplore 2.1.4 will be OpenURL compatible, which provides a standardized syntax for organizing bibliographic metadata and identifiers in a URL and transferring data between information services. Links are enabled between unsubscribed content in IEEE Xplore to a library resolver, leading users to appropriate resources within their institution. With this enhancement, librarians can work with commercially available link resolver software to fully enable their publication catalog. OpenURL will be provided in these areas:
Search results,li>References
Brief abstracts
IEEE Book abstracts
Other features of the IEEE Xplore 2.1.4 upgrade include:
RefWorks and Bibtex format downloadable citations from IEEE AbstractPlus records, search results, and tables of contents
Monthly lists of each periodical's most-downloaded articles
Watermarked PDF documents, illustrating the value of your library subscription
