What's the ScienceDirect Article Toolbox?

The ScienceDirect Article Toolbox brings together several items of functionality that help you do more with the research you are accessing and can save you time!

Here's a quick run-down of what each tool offers:

• Download PDF -Use the Document Download Manager to download upto 20 full-text articles at once. You can automatically name downloaded content according to your own naming convention and pre-select a preferred destination for downloads.
