AALAS has contracted with IngentaConnect to provide a host of new services for Comparative Medicine and JAALAS. IngentaConnect will create a custom-built web site for each title that will link from the AALAS site. These mini “sites” will retain the design of the AALAS site, and users will experience a seamless transition from the AALAS home page to the journal content.
The Ingenta sites will offer users an improved search functionality, as well as linked references to other papers. The current practice of allowing open access of articles older than six months will remain in effect. The Comparative Medicine and JAALAS sites are on track to launch this spring with the current issues and the 2006–2007 back issues. To access content before 2006, users will search the current article database, which will be converted to the Ingenta system format over a period of years.
In addition, the AALAS journals will be accessible to the more than 19 million users and 25,000 registered libraries and institutions that log on to Ingenta each month.
