*A note on Most Read and Most Recently Cited Articles:
The Most Read Articles list for each publication is automatically updated on an ongoing basis according to user downloads on the platform. Please note that this list only reflects papers that have been downloaded from the new platform. To learn how to pull full usage data for all of your articles, please consult the section titled Collecting Usage Data.
The Most Recently Cited Articles list uses CrossRef cited-by data (downloaded on the 1st and 15th of each month) to automatically identify the papers that have received the most new citations over the last month. The articles that appear here are not those that have received the most citations in total, but rather the articles which have been cited most often most recently.
Promoting your participation in BioOne Complete is a great way to grow your publication's visibility and drive usage (royalties). Below are a few quick tips.

BioOne offers society publishers the opportunity to provide their individual members with free access to their respective publications in BioOne Complete.
The following societies participate in this program:
American Association of Zoo Veterinarians |
Natural Areas Association |
User experience: Society members do need not to create a BioOne Complete user profile or log in on the BioOne site. Instead, access for the society member is achieved through a specially configured link to BioOne that will be posted on a members-only page of the society's website. By clicking on this link, members are automatically authenticated and connected to their society's journal in BioOne Complete.
Technical information: To configure Member Access, the society must work with BioOne technical staff to configure what is called "blind login" authentication. Blind login authentication brings the user from a link on a members-only page of the society's website to a custom HTML document that automatically directs the user to the appropriate journal on the BioOne Complete website and seamlessly logs them in, with no further action on their part. The custom HTML document is provided to the society by BioOne technical staff; the society simply needs to host this HTML document on the their server and configure the link to it on a members-only page of their website. Note that to configure blind login access to BioOne.org, your society must be able to upload a custom HTML document to your website's server.
