New Springer resource

Exemplar at http://www.springerexemplar.com/index.aspx searches over 1,900 journals from Springer’s collection to find authentic examples of how a word or phrase is used in published literature. Comprehensive coverage includes both current and archival content in all major subject areas including the life sciences, medicine, engineering, mathematics, computer science, business, and law, contributed by some of the world’s leading academics in these fields. Exemplar is continuously updated with new content as it is published.

Exemplar is for:

  • Authors who want suggestions on how to express themselves or want to confirm how a particular word or phrase is used in published literature.
  • Teachers who are looking for authentic phrases and sentences for teaching and testing.
  • Editors and reviewers who want to confirm whether or not a particular turn of phrase is justified by usage.
Exemplar was created via a collaboration between Springer Science & Business Media and the Center for Biomedical and Health Linguistics.
