It’s not often that we take a moment to pat ourselves on the back, or similarly, post press releases to our blog. We are so thrilled about our latest launch of Oxford Dictionaries Online, however, we wanted to share the news with you—our loyal blog readers. If you haven’t already spotted the release across the networks, we have included a few bits and pieces— and a link to the entire release—below.

Oxford Dictionaries Online is Oxford’s innovative modern English dictionary and language reference service. Featuring smart-linked, fully searchable content from Oxford’s largest modern English dictionaries and thesauruses, ODO provides comprehensive coverage of British, US, and World English with more than 350,000 definitions and 600,000 synonyms and antonyms.

PubFactory’s customizable features include a ‘My Oxford Dictionary’ feature for creating your own profile and saving entries and searches, an innovative alpha word wheel for browsing, and a user-friendly advanced search.

“We are delighted to have worked with iFactory in developing Oxford Dictionaries Online,” said Judy Pearsall, Head of Dictionaries, Oxford University Press. “This was a large custom-built project with complex data needs, and iFactory excelled in building an enticing and intuitive interface with underlying data sophistication and robust technology. Overall we’re pleased that it’s been such a good match of design, data skills, and rich content.”

The selection of PubFactory for Oxford Dictionaries Online continues a long-standing relationship between iFactory and OUP.
