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.”
