Browzine

Browzine.com is provided to JCU staff and students by the library to make keeping up-to-date with journal literature as frictionless as possible.

It provides a simple and consistent user interface across thousands of journals and hundreds of publishers.

There is a simple signup procedure that walks you through creating an account using your JCU email address. You can create and organise a 'newstand' of  library-subscribed and open access journals that interest you. You can set up email alerts that send you the table of contents of each new issue as it becomes available with links straight to the articles..

The intuitive design organised with a powerful taxonomy will help you discover new journals in your field and promotes 'serendipitous' discovery of content by providing contextual links between article, issue and journal.

Browzine technology provides quick access to fulltext bypassing convoluted publisher sites and link resolvers.
