Enhanced journal articles from the RSC

The RSC have announced that from February 2007 “RSC journal papers will be enhanced so that their data can be read, indexed and intelligently searched by machine, a first step towards the “semantic web.”

In practice, this means that readers of RSC journals who click on named compounds and scientific concepts in an article will be able to download structures, understand topics and to link through to electronic databases.

The RSC have called this intiative Project Prospect and you can find out more about it on the project web site.

The University of Liverpool has a subscription to all Royal Society of Chemistry journals so if you read these journals you should be able to benefit from this intiative.
