In one of my previous posts on Updates on (medical) journal Apps  i did mention there was no news about Docphin . And very quickly after that they came with a major update! Here are the main new features of Docphin: the IOS App is now ALSO for IPAD , which is a big step forward. This makes Docphin more competitive with ReadbyQxMD and docwise . The Docphin web-interface is however still unique, offering users to check and maintain their preferred journals & news on desktop computers easily. Maybe ReadbyQxMD is goind that way too with their  Read on the  Web, search   feature. Institutional Access   -  Save your password and never type it in again This is a major improvement too taking away loging in over and over again. ReadbyQxMD , BrowZine and Docphin now have this for the library proxy and I am hoping docwise will go there soon too! Medstream - Keep up with breaking research in the news Get visually triggered by relevant topics and rel...

Here a short overview of all new updates around the Journal apps we are supporting. Personally I am most excited about the anouncements of " docwise " making big steps to keep up with BrowZine & Read (Integration -"Open in"- with Dropbox, Evernote and more, save and email full text articles), but making a hug jump with unique features, like shareable Folders with docwise users ánd a RSS reader feature (boldly called Google Reader replacement!). Bring it on! BrowZine : just published the Android Version of their App to which the CMB UMCG now has a subscription. To be downloaded from Google Play Store or Amazon App Store the following publishers have been added  Project MUSE Cambridge University Press American Marketing Association Academy of Management Royal Society of Chemistry Institute of Physics American Physical Society Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) American Geophysical Union International Society for Optics a...

How to get people to download your brand new Journal app for the Library? Besides putting out Download banners on your website or blog, you can use a smart App Banner for IOS Applications that appears when users on iPad or iPhone visit your Blog or Website via the mobile Safari browser. I first read about this at the BrowZine Marketing Tools for Libraries page I tried it on this Blog and on atUMCG, the blog about all UMCG scientific publications . There are plugins for this in WordPress , but all you need to do is to add a little single string of code in the Header section of the blog or website. Here are the strings for BrowZine and docwise. BrowZine: <meta name="apple-itunes-app" content="app-id=463787411"> docwise iPad <meta content='app-id=581136701' name='apple-itunes-app'> docwise iPhone: <meta content='app-id=628730259' name='apple-itunes-app'> I want to know more about this!
