"[Project Prospect] is fantastic. I've just seen the future of the journal." - Ed Pentz Executive Director, CrossRef

"The new features of linking terms to the IUPAC gold book etc. are very helpful. They will be particularly useful to readers new to a particular research area, but even experienced readers will profit from an occasional use of the tools" - Professor David Kingston, Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University 

"I think this is a terrific idea!" - Professor Brian Shoichet, University of California, San Francisco 

"The enhanced versions are wonderful. I particularly like the "show compounds" and "goldbook" features (very useful for reminding one of unfamiliar or forgotten terms)...I am certain that these enhancements to RSC journal articles will add significant value to readers and to authors." - Professor Susan Bourne, University of Cape Town 

"Project Prospect is truly outstanding and makes the html articles very easy to read, in addition the relevant data is readily available via hyperlinks." - Professor Kari Rissanen, University of Jyväskylä 

"I congratulate the RSC for making web based articles so user friendly and attractive. A plethora of information is available at the click of the mouse." - Professor Amit Basak, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur 

"This is a very powerful resource to the research community and invaluable for students getting into literature searching for whom it brings back the old library work which we have lost. I also found it easy to get into and very user friendly." - Professor Stephen Haswell, The University of Hull 

"I think this is a very valuable tool for searching the literature quickly." - Prof. dr. ir. Christian Stevens, Ghent University 

"An interesting opportunity particularly for managers, students and beginners that are not that deeply involved in the detail and the terminology. It further opens access to those who want to explore areas they are not specialists in. Great idea!" - Dr. Eberhard Krauß, Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG) 

"We're delighted by the RSC's decision to use GO and SO terms to annotate scientific papers they publish. It's an exciting application of ontologies that will help researchers search the ever-growing body of scientific literature more quickly and effectively. We hope to see more publishers following the RSC's example in the future." - Midori Harris, GO's editor from the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) Hinxton 

"My first few forays show [Project Prospect is] brilliant. [It's] great to see the compounds and have machine readable SMILES and InChIs" -  Professor Robert Glen, Director of the Centre for Molecular Science Informatics 

"Your new system is very impressive, I am sure it will become very useful to a large community" - Professor Pierre Braunstein, Université Louis Pasteur

"...an exciting effort by the RSC .... As someone working in the area of text retrieval and semantic web, this is a very exciting prospect." - Glen Newton, Canada Institute for Scientific and Technical Information (CISTI) 

"My first impressions - this is extremely useful." - Dr John H. Duffus, Edinburgh Centre for Toxicology 

"This is a fantastic resource for the community, and a great use of the GO and SO. Nice work everyone" - Dr Chris Mungall, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory 

"...this looks a very exciting development" - Dr Jonathan Goodman, Centre for Molecular Science Informatics 

"I have tried the web-based version of the article and found it very intuitive/straightforward to use.[I] believe that it will make the manuscript even more appealing to readers." - Dr Guillermo Moyna, University of the Sciences in Philadelphia 

"This functionality rounds off the scientific quality of the work and makes it more accessible to scientists from other disciplines. I thank you very much for improving my article in this way! Another truly innovative step by RSC." - Professor Alejandro Marangoni, University of Guelph

"I really appreciated the features of this implementation in the HTML version of the paper. I believe this initiative greatly enhances the utility of a printed article for readers." - Dr. Sandra Monti, Istituto per la Sintesi Organica e la Fottoreattività
