Nearly all scientific articles use specific terms that are defined by the scientific area they are expressed in. The WikiHyperGlossary uses a document's text to connect articles to both textual and multimedia content through a web interface. In this poster we will look at how the integration of a semantic style web interaction can not only increase the amount of information available to the reader, but also provide new ways to ask questions and seek answers. This project aids chemical education and the scientific community by connecting social web contributions, molecular editors, published resources, and standardized glossaries to scientific documents. Our overall project is to aid scientific education and research by providing a platform which connects any document to a variety of specialized web based tools and resources. This individual poster will focus on the application of molecular editors within the WikiHyperGlossary as a tool for information acquisition.
