The folks at Social Science Research Network have been kind enough to share with me info about some recent enhancements. These features include a completely revised Simple Submission process, a new sign in process, and redesigned Author and Abstract Pages. See the announcement for more information.
I recently spoke with SSRN pres, Gregg Gordon who tells me that they are working on a open url resolver. With this feature, a reader coming across a fee-based article in SSRN would see a link to the full-text article, if available, from their local library. I’m all for that!
