Silverchair and ASTM International announced the launch of the enhanced ASTM Digital Library on the Silverchair Platform. ASTM International is a globally recognized leader in engineering standards and technical publications. This strategic partnership provides users with advanced access to ASTM's comprehensive collection of more than 35,000 chapters and papers, including 17,000 journal articles spanning multiple engineering disciplines.

The ASTM Digital Library houses a diverse array of engineering content, including ASTM journals, proceedings, manuals, monographs, data series, and technical reports. By migrating to Silverchair's cutting-edge platform, ASTM users will benefit from enhanced search capabilities, improved user experience, and access to Silverchair's innovative AI-powered discovery tools that help researchers find relevant content more efficiently.

A key advantage of the partnership is ASTM's integration into Silverchair's thriving client community of leading scholarly publishers. This collaborative ecosystem enables continuous platform innovation, with new features and capabilities developed through shared insights from publishers across diverse disciplines. The community-driven approach ensures that technological advances benefit all users while maintaining the highest standards for scholarly content delivery.

According to Stuart Radcliffe, ASTM International's Vice President of Sales and Marketing, "Our partnership with Silverchair represents a significant leap forward in how we deliver critical technical information to our global readership of engineers, researchers, and industry professionals. We're not just implementing a technology solution; we're joining a collaborative community that ensures our digital strategy remains flexible, innovative, and aligned with our organizational goals."
