Dear Sri,

I have found your contact details on the openwetware.org website and would
like to get in touch with you to see if you might be interested in a new
service on your platform. My name is Fabian Kersten and I am marketing
manager for Scopus (*www.scopus.com*). Scopus started rolling out free Web
service that allows you to place highly accurate Cited-by counts on
yoursite using the Scopus engine in April. I believe this service
could be an
interesting addition to your platform as it offers your users a way to
assess the article in the context of the citations it has received.

Both the precision (>99.2%) and the recall (97.8%) of the Scopus citation
information are industry-leading. With all references from 15.000 journals
included since 1996, linked references for all but historical (older than
say 12 years) articles will be as complete as they can be. The Cited-by
count is provided real time and will include a link to the bibliographic
details on Scopus (i.e. the list of articles that make up the Cited-by
count). The Cited-by counts Web service is already available today for all
publishers, but in April the service will be enhanced to great benefit to
ensure that users that enter Scopus but are not subscribed to Scopus - are
still able to see the bibliographic details on Scopus. More information is
available in the attachment.

If you are interested I would like to explore a possible collaboration
between us. Are you the right person to have initial discussion with? If
not, can you please refer me to the most appropriate person within your
organization?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards,
Fabian
