Authors who publish with Taylor & Francis journals will see their supplemental material in a new online format from today, as tables, datasets, filesets, videos and graphs become instantly viewable on Taylor & Francis Online, easily discoverable from search engines and quickly hosted on Figshare. Beginning with some 468 articles across twelve journals on the Taylor & Francis Environment and Agriculture list, this new service will see authors with journal articles currently in production with Taylor & Francis use the Figshare technology to display their supplemental data.
Not only will authors see their supplemental material in a much more engaging format (instantly viewable using the Figshare widget, once readers select the supplemental tab on Taylor & Francis Online) but they will also be able to share this material more easily and track usage through Figshare’s metric functions. Every file uploaded to Figshare will be easily citable (with a DataCite DOI allocated at the point of publication) and will be stored under a Creative Commons License. For every item on Figshare there will also be a link back to its corresponding article on Taylor & Francis Online, so not only is the supplemental content more discoverable, so is the article.
Figshare launched on Taylor & Francis Online on 30th January 2014 and all new journal articles with supplemental material will automatically be uploaded to Figshare from this date. See how it works:
