Dear Colleagues,
IOP Publishing (IOP) and the American Astronomical Society (AAS) are
pleased to announce the launch of the Astronomy Image Explorer (AIE). The
AIE provides quick and easy access to hundreds of thousands of images,
illustrations, graphs, charts, and videos that have been published in
peer-reviewed journals and is available free online to scientists and the
public alike.
Users can easily search using any combination of author, journal,
citation, format, and keywords. Convenient tools are available to generate
PowerPoint slides, download high-resolution images, obtain permissions and
reuse information, or view the image in the context of the originally
published research. New images are added daily as journal content is
published and copyright information is embedded in each file downloaded
from the site, along with the journal reference to facilitate proper
citation.
The AIE has been designed as a convenient and efficient tool for
researchers to find graphics that have appeared in the Astrophysical
Journal and the Astronomical Journal, which IOP publishes for the AAS.
Please visit the site at http://astroexplorer.org for more information.
With Regards,
Librarian
