Making the connection
Jacob Veldema

When Elsevier combines a vast array of scientific information with publishing expertise, great things happen for journal editors and reviewers. Reference linking is the product of just this kind of innovation.

Reference linking has revolutionized the Peer Review process, by allowing editors and reviewers one-click access to the sources cited in a manuscript.
Editors use reference linking to assess the quality of submitted manuscripts, check authors’ claims and find missing reference details, saving valuable time and resources.

Reference linking can also be used to identify suitable new reviewers, by connecting scientists and bringing well-cited authors to the forefront. Through reference linking, editors can find the authors of references, including their e-mail addresses, and contact them directly.

“This has been an example of truly integrating what Elsevier has to offer to the scientific community in terms of tools and databases,” says Jacob Veldema, acting Project Manager for Reference Linking.

One hundred and fifty journals have already been added to the reference linking service, and it’s expected that most science and technology journals will be able to join the service in the coming months.
