"Springer Nature and ResearchGate have agreed to move forward with a
long-term content syndication partnership starting in Q4 of 2020. This
cooperation expands the scope of a two-phase pilot, which began in
2019 and has been evaluated in a white paper published today.

"The partnership will enable content delivery of the version-of-record
(VoR) articles directly to ResearchGate publication pages. Entitled
users will be able to download and read the VoR of articles published
in Springer journals from the past five years, and all Nature-branded
research journals from the past three years, on ResearchGate; new
articles will be made available on a daily basis as they are
published. Non-entitled users will be able to access an enhanced
abstract of the article on ResearchGate, which includes metadata,
abstract, figures and captions and the full first page. By combining
Springer Nature’s expertise in publishing high-quality research with
ResearchGate’s online platform for millions of scientists, both
organisations aim to deliver an enhanced and seamless experience for
the communities they serve."
