Crossref metadata clarification #1

Open sckott opened 7 years ago

You cited my github gist here https://github.com/dhicks/bibliometrics-workshop/blob/master/Getting%20%26%20Working%20with%20Bibliometric%20Data.md#sources-of-bibliometrics-data-1

Just to clarify, that coverage analysis is specifically of links to full text - Crossref clearly has more coverage of metadata than Elsevier because they mint DOIs for Elsevier and the majority of other publishers

(p.s. you're probably aware, but we do have Scopus access in https://github.com/ropensci/fulltext )

Thanks for clarifying! I spent a while trying to find a dictionary for Crossref, and just kept coming back to the API documentation page.
