BrowZine Features
-
Filter to show unread articles only within a Journal
Toggle for display "All" vs "Unread Only".
Some journals in BrowZine do not have adequate metadata to put articles in page number order (or they may not have page numbers to begin with!) and so are filed in alphabetical order. For continuously-published titles this means that unread articles may appear in a seemingly random order.
There is also a scenario where page number/article ID is present but because of a title being continuously published, the new articles appear at the BOTTOM of a potentially very long table of contents making it cumbersome to scroll all the way to the bottom…

Allow libraries to customize messaging that shows up for embargoed journal issues (for ILL/Link Resolver integration)
Allow libraries to customize this to more specifically address ILL or Link Resolver integrations.
Specific features to customize:
1) Messaging in orange highlighted box on TOC page
2) Messaging in interstitial window: "Your library does not have the full text of:" ... "... but we may be able to get it for you!"
3) Wording of button/link text (currently says: "Request this item and/or check additional sources"31 votes -
F1000Workspace functionality (like Mendeley and Zotero)
F1000Workspace (from F1000.com), which is a citation manager like Zotero and Mendeley. Our users prefer it and would like Browzine to work with it.

Add journals from all publishers and users will only get access to what their university subscribe to. They will get a turn away otherwise.

Add ability to link from TOC to publisher's website
A user suggested the ability to link right to the home page of the journal on the publisher's site in order to learn more about the journal as well as to potentially see other non-periodical content.
26 votesOur mistake on this one! Not all components of this feature are complete, so this was set to complete prematurely. Apologies for the mistake!
