Berlin (Germany) and Ottawa (Ontario) February 29, 2024 – ResearchGate, the professional network for researchers, and Canadian Science Publishing (CSP), Canada’s largest independent scientific journals publisher, today announced a new partnership that will enhance the reach and visibility of all CSP’s open access journals through ResearchGate’s innovative Journal Home offering.
The new partnership underscores CSP’s commitment to increasing access to research for everyone. All version-of-record article content from all CSP’s open access journals, including archive content and all new articles on publication, will be available to the 25 million researchers active on ResearchGate. In addition, dedicated journal profiles will be activated on ResearchGate and the journals will be prominently featured on all associated articles and touchpoints throughout the ResearchGate network, enhancing visibility for both readers and potential authors.
CSP authors who publish in these open access journals will also benefit from having their content automatically added to their profiles on ResearchGate, presenting a unique opportunity to understand and connect with their readers. And all ResearchGate users will be able to identify and understand how their own personal networks are connected to these CSP journals.
“Our partnership with ResearchGate presents an excellent opportunity to expand the reach and visibility of our open access content to researchers around the world,” said Elaine Stott, Chief Executive Officer at CSP. “CSP is committed to removing barriers to vital research, making it sustainable and accessible to anyone. We’re looking forward to the results of this new collaboration.”
“We’re delighted to be working with CSP, another mission-driven organization much like ours, to extend and amplify research around the world,” said Sören Hofmayer, co-founder and Chief Strategy Officer at ResearchGate. “Both CSP and ResearchGate recognise the importance of increasing access to vital knowledge to advance progress. CSP will benefit from our active and engaged researcher community, bringing new international reach and readership to their journals.”
