Project MUSE chose WorldCat to help connect its users to more articles by an author through a new discovery feature called ‘More By.’
The new feature appears on each article display within Project MUSE. Users simply click on the linked contributing author name to find additional articles in MUSE, WorldCat.org and Google Scholar.
Partnering with WorldCat means that Project MUSE users can now connect to the author’s works in libraries, through WorldCat’s distinctive “Find in a library” link. Melanie Schaffner, Marketing and Sales Manager for Project MUSE, explains that, “Including a link to WorldCat adds depth to a user’s research, as the WorldCat record provides information about access to all formats of the author’s work. WorldCat allows users to search the collections of libraries in their communities, as well as many others around the world, for both physical items and digital content.”
Managed by the Johns Hopkins University Press, Project MUSE represents a unique collaboration between libraries and publishers to provide an online source for full-text access to more than 400 prestigious humanities and social sciences journals.
