BrowZine virtual bookshelf for your tablet

By , April 9, 2013 9:17 am

BrowZine is the easy way to stay current with the journals you read most.

BrowZine lets you:

  • Read scholarly journals in a format that is optimized for tablets.
  • Create a personal bookshelf of favorite journals.
  • Be alerted when new issues of a journal are available.
  • Bookmark articles for reading later.
  • Easily save to Zotero, Dropbox, or Mendeley.

Watch this video demo to see BrowZine in action.

To get started, download BrowZine from the Apple Store.  The first time you use it select “University of Missouri – Kansas City” in the list of institutions, then enter your UMKC username and password.  After that you will remain logged in on your device.

Not all of the library’s journals are currently available, but the developer is working with publishers to add content.  Check the list of participating publishers often if you are looking for a particular journal.

BrowZine is only available for iPad at this time, but an Android version is in the works and should be available soon.

BrowZine is brought to you by the UMKC Libraries. You can visit the Libraries’ BrowZine web page or contact the Libraries for more information.
