Abstract
Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for managing user reviews of publications within an online user network. Various user interfaces may provide access to view a publication and request a review thereof, solicit and receive reviewing information from the requesting or another user (or multiple users), and provide access to a review generated from the received reviewing information.

Within an online social network and publication system having a plurality of registered users, a method comprising, by one or more processors of the system executing instructions stored in one or more computer-readable media:
- for each of a plurality of research publications, generating a respective publication user interface, accessible by each of the registered users, that displays or links to the research publication, the publication user interface comprising one or more user-interface elements enabling each of the registered users to initiate a review by issuing a digital request to review the research publication and further enabling each of the registered users to initiate a review by issuing a digital request for solicitation of a review of the research publication from one or more other users that are to be automatically determined by the system without input from the user requesting solicitation of the review;
- in response to receipt of a digital request for solicitation of a review from one or more other users, automatically identifying, among the registered users, one or more that are researchers in a field of the respective research publication, and inviting the one or more identified registered users to become reviewers;
- and
- upon acceptance, by one of the identified registered users, of an invitation to become a reviewer, or in response to receipt, from any of the registered users, of a digital request to review the research publication, soliciting and receiving digital review information from the respective identified or requesting registered user via a review user interface, and updating the publication user interface with at least a portion of the digital review information or a link to at least a portion of the digital review information.
