What is an ‘enhanced publication’?
“…a publication that is enhanced with research data, extra materials, post
publication data, database records (e.g. the Protein Data Bank), and that
has an object-based structure with explicit links between the objects. In this
definition an object can be (part of) an article, a data set, an image, a
movie, a comment, a module or a link to information in a database.”
(Woutersen-Windhouwer & Brandsma, 2009: 20)
