移动阅读环境下开放存取科技论文网站的可用性建设

riven by mobile technology, mobile reading has been accepted widely. To meet the needs of mobile learning and research, Open Access Science & Technology (referred to as OA S&T) websites should follow current trends, adopting mobile services. It is of great significance to improve mobile usability of OA S&T websites. After a survey of foreign OA portals and websites, this paper concludes that OA S&T websites' mobile usability is fairly poor. This paper also summarizes key points for improving mobile usability, which is including but not limited to increasing compatibility, optimizing, keeping simple and considering mobile users and environments. The strategy of miniature, i.e., transferring desktop websites to mobile platform untouched, is denied. To increase mobile usability of OA S&T websites, this paper conducts a thorough discussion in terms of web designing, human computer interaction, navigation, search and resources.
