Springer launches eBook program

Springer Science + Business Media, the book publisher in the fields of science, technology and medicine, is launching its new eBook program. Scientists and students will now have electronic access to more than 10,000 Springer titles. In future, more than 3000 books are to be added each year. As part of the eBook program, Springer has redesigned its online platform Springerlink.com. Users can now find over 10,000 Springer eBooks together with millions of articles from scientific journals. This bundling on one platform should make it easier for scientists to find book chapters and link them to their search for journal articles. Springer books should also be used and cited more frequently for scientific purposes.
