Extension of "oa_status" field #22

Closed bschweighofer closed 10 months ago

bschweighofer commented 1 year ago

Currently the field "oa_type" includes the values gold, hybrid and closed. Is it planned to extend the data to include values like preprint, embargoed publ. version, gold with or without APC, primary publication; licenses, individual author contract, etc.? This could be very useful for the evaluation. Or does that lead too far?

ReportBy: email.

The element "oa_type" is no longer part of our metadata schema. The oa type is sufficiantly described through the entity "amount_paid" via specifying the cost type (gold-oa, hybrid-oa). To denote reimbursements or Diamond OA models negative or zero values can also be indicated here.
