Ingenta Connect is delighted to announce the integration of Google’s CASA service into Ingenta Connect.
CASA is a new service developed by Google which lets researchers access full text PDFs from journals to which their institution has subscribed, even when they are working at home and not using a university IP address. How does it work?
Ingenta Connect already functions with Google’s Subscriber Links service so institutional users can link directly from Google Scholar search results to subscribed content – but only if they are on campus. CASA extends this feature so Google Scholar users can access the same subscribed content off-campus as they do on-campus, so no additional off-campus login is necessary. Result: an easier, smoother way for legitimate users – wherever they are – to access our publishers’ content!
We’ll be at UKSG again this year! The UKSG Annual Conference and Exhibition UKSG 41st Annual Conference and Exhibition (9th to 11th April) is a major event in the scholarly communications calendar which each year attracts over 900 delegates from around the world – librarians, publishers, content providers, consultants and intermediaries. The conference combines high-quality plenary presentations, lightning talks and breakout sessions with a major trade exhibition and entertaining social events. This year it’s being held in Glasgow, Scotland – a fine city to visit. If you would like to see us, please email paul.overend@ingenta.com to arrange an appointment.

Paths International
This new journal provides unique and diverse perspectives from China on the ‘Belt and Road Initiative’. The BRI principle of “wide consultation, joint construction, mutual benefit” embodies a brand-new, non- confrontational cooperation concept based on traditional Chinese culture. This journal researches the BRI objectives of “policy coordination, facilities connectivity, unimpeded trade, financial integration and people-to-people bonds”. The goal of this journal is to be comprehensive in content, rigorous in structure and meticulous in form. See http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/paths/cbrij
