New services with JST Link Center

-Crawling J-STAGE by Google and citing articles on J-STAGE

Abstract

We will introduce two important features of JST Link Center, which provides an electronic journal site J-STAGE operated by Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) with a linking feature. One is a mechanism, which enables Google to crawl J-STAGE articles via the Internet. This enables users to retrieve fulltext keywords of J-STAGE on Google, or Google Scholar. The other is showing a link to citing articles with CrossRef Forward Linking service since May 2005. This enables users to reach the articles, which cite J-STAGE articles beyond J-STAGE journals while we have shown those within J-STAGE so far.
