Temis Attends University
December 30, 2014
Despite budget cuts in academic research with print materials, higher education is clamoring for more digital content. You do not need Google Translate to understand that means more revenue for companies in that industry. Virtual Strategy writes that someone wants in on the money: “With Luxid Content Enrichment Platform, Cairn.info Automates The Extraction Of Bibliographic References And The Linking To Corresponding Article.”
Temis is an industry leader in semantic content enrichment solutions for enterprise and they signed a license and service agreement with CAIRN.info. CAIRN.info is a publishing portal for social sciences and humanities, providing students with access to the usual research fare.
Taking note of the changes in academic research, CAIRN.info wants to upgrade its digital records for a more seamless user experience:
“To make its collection easier to navigate, and ahead of the introduction of an additional 20.000 books which will consolidate its role of reference SSH portal, Cairn.info decided to enhance the interconnectedness of SSH publications with semantic enrichment. Indeed, the body of SSH articles often features embedded bibliographic references that don’t include actual links to the target document. Cairn.info therefore chose to exploit the Luxid® Content Enrichment Platform, driven by a customized annotator (Skill Cartridge®), to automatically identify, extract, and normalize these bibliographic references and to link articles to the documents they refer to.”
A round of applause for Cairn.info, realizing that making research easier will help encourage more students to use its services. If only academic databases would take ease of use into consideration and upgrade their UI dashboards.
