GetFTR has expanded its capabilities and can now able support preprint websites, offering researchers streamlined access to authoritative content through its GetFTR Browser Extension. This enhancement enables users on platforms such as Preprints.org, OSF.io, ArXiv, ChemRxiv, BioRxiv, and SSRN to connect directly to the Version of Record when entitled—whether through institutional subscriptions, open access, or free content.
The extension works by matching preprints to DOIs using title, date, and author details. A GetFTR indicator button will now appear next to the preprint, guiding researchers to the full-text version when available.
Additionally, the latest update brings critical retraction and errata information directly to researchers at the point of discovery. This ensures that users are not only accessing the latest research but are also informed of any updates or corrections, improving the integrity of citations and academic work.
The GetFTR Browser Extension is available for free and enhances research workflows across search engines, social media, news sites, reference platforms, and any webpage where a DOI is present.
