Get Full Text Research
Researchers will experience streamlined access to cited articles with the addition of GetFTR (Get Full Text Research) to the references sections of Taylor & Francis journals. The integrated GetFTR indicator enables users to see at a glance which cited articles are available to read next, with smart links for direct access.
GetFTR icons signpost researchers to full text articles available as OA or their institutional library’s subscriptions. The indicator uses real-time entitlement data from all participating publishers’ sites and enables users to access cited articles with a single click.
It also supports Taylor & Francis Online’s existing toll free linking feature, which ensures site users with access to an article can read all Taylor & Francis articles it cites. Taylor & Francis was one of the founding sponsors of GetFTR, an initiative which has grown to support a wide variety of publishers, discovery resources, scholarly collaboration networks, platform providers and other organizations involved in scholarly communication.
