Wiley InterScience Launches Author Resources

New tools and services facilitate the research and
publishing processes

Hoboken, N.J., March 1, 2006 – Global publisher John Wiley &
Sons, Inc. today announced the launch of Author Resources, a
suite of tools and services designed to improve the research
pathway, enhance content discovery, and benefit current and
prospective authors of journal articles. Author Resources is
now available through Wiley InterScience
(www.interscience.wiley.com), the company’s dynamic online
publishing platform.

Accessible to all Wiley InterScience users, Author Resources
provides general information about Wiley, the benefits of
publishing on Wiley InterScience, information about
submitting and tracking a manuscript through Wiley’s
production process, and a suite of author tools.

“Wiley is excited to unveil Wiley InterScience Author
Resources and all its accompanying features,” said Patrick
Kelly, Vice President and Publishing Director, John Wiley &
Sons, Inc. “These services will assist authors in conducting
their research and publishing their work.”

Author Resources was developed in response to author
feedback and addresses the key areas that are most important
to them – access to a variety of features that support their
research, and more detailed information regarding the
journal publishing process.

Track My Articles, a new author tool launching in
conjunction with Author Resources, facilitates the process
of publishing peer-reviewed content. Available for all Wiley
InterScience journals, this feature enables authors whose
articles have been accepted for publication to track the
status of their article through the production process to
its publication.

To access Track My Articles, authors sign up for My Profile
by registering at www.interscience.wiley.com. Once
registered, authors can begin to take advantage of all the
features of this tool, including: a manuscript submission
guide that assists authors in the process of selecting a
publication to submit a manuscript to; a production tracking
service that allows authors to track the progress of their
submitted manuscript from acceptance, through proofs and
corrections stages, to live publication on Wiley
InterScience; a publication alerting service that notifies
authors by e-mail when manuscripts are published online; and
a feedback area that gives authors an opportunity to
critique the entire publication process once it’s been
completed.

With the launch of Author Resources, Wiley is also
introducing two additional author tools:

Citation Tracking – Available to licensed Wiley
InterScience end-users, this new capability allows
authors to view published works that have cited the
article they are currently reading from content on
Wiley InterScience and other publishers’ sites. This
feature was developed in partnership with CrossRef® and
includes links to citations from other CrossRef®
publishers that offer this capability.

Citation Download – The new capability to download
citations and abstracts from journal articles and
online book chapters directly into reference management
software, such as EndNote™.

In addition, the new Author Resources area provides easy-to-
access information regarding all the existing Wiley
InterScience features of interest to authors including:
Early View®, the service that provides online access to full
text, peer-reviewed, copyedited articles as soon as they are
complete and before they appear in print; Table of Contents
(TOC) Alerts, e-mail notifications sent to authors when a
journal’s latest issue is published online; Saved Search
Alerts, e-mail notifications sent to authors when content
appears online that matches previously saved searches;
MobileEdition®, the service that provides tables of contents
and abstracts from the latest issues of selected journals
delivered directly to a PDA device; and Roaming Access, a
crucial option in today’s mobile culture, this service
enables remote password access to full-text licensed content
from a laptop or web-enabled computer from anywhere in the
world.

“We’ll continue to develop new tools and services based on
author feedback,” added Kelly, “and we’re confident these
services will greatly enhance our authors’ overall
publishing experience with Wiley.”
