Discovery Editor Highlights

Communities can appoint Discovery Editors. Discovery Editors have access to the opensci prefind tool, a curation assistant which allows them to easily explore preprints on other preprint servers - such an biorxiv, medrxiv and arxiv - and highlight them to their Community.

Discovery Editor Highlights are clearly marked as such on The Ark. Their title will be prefixed with the name of the preprint server they are on, and you will see Discovery Editor information, including a rating submitted by the Editor. The opensci prefind logo is also included.

Only the article metadata is retrieved, so users will have to click the DOI link to read the full text. Members are still encouraged to provide feedback of Discovery Editor Highlights, and The Ark are actively exploring how these can be sent back to the original server and the preprint’s authors.
