Scholarly Collections, Recommended Works and GDPR Compliance
Two major new items of functionality are now available with this release:
- Scholarly Collections: You can now create, and manage a Collection of Scholarly Works just the same way you can with Patents. In this initial release we limited the size of the collection to 10k, however, in the near future, we plan to expand that number by at least 10 fold and hopefully provide APIs.
- Added "Recommended Works" feature, as sourced from Microsoft Academic Graph, in the article's view . These are relevant further scholarly readings.
Additionally:
- Each Scholarly Work can now be identified by a 15 digit Lens ID allowing you to find "many" knowledge artefacts associated with that work ranging from its variants in the various databases to many of the value added metadata including its citation in the patent and scholarly literature. You can use the ID as part of a query or to retrieve the associated record (eg.
042-204-626-457-327).
- Search Results toolbar has been improved.
- We added Terms and Conditions checkbox to Registration process for GDPR compliance.
-Colour coding of Patents and Scholarly Works tabs has been implemented.
Bug fixes:
-Lens Logo bug (user's feedback)
-Add missing "choose More" explorer to scholar facets on View Article page (user's feedback)
