Abstract

When it comes to Elsevier, today there is much more beyond the traditional publishing house. However, ScienceDirect and publishing production still remains the core, enriched each year by several developments, such as backfiles or eBooks content wise, or Article of the future or new RSS feeds function wise. What regards to publishing, Elsevier is also actively embracing the open access and nowadays there are several ways how to treat this demand, including the very new opportunity to host a journal within Elsevier. Beyond publishing, popular Scopus database is constantly being improved, and few developments were implemented, such as linkage with ORCID ID or focus on data cleaning, to serve better research community. Elsevier today is also largely active in research evaluation, with its SciVal suite of products and analytics presented on the last Inforum conference. Newly, Elsevier tapped into the field of research management information systems, serving both to researchers and libraries in scholarly communication tracking and analysing, and to research management to handle the processes connected within research. This presentation will bring short overview on Elsevier developments and news within all mentioned areas.
