investigate OpenAIRE for article license and other metadata #54

Open wrought opened 10 years ago

http://api.openaire.eu/

maybe can pair with crossref data / proposal(s).

wrought commented 10 years ago

seems to be a "rights" tag <element ref="dc:rights"/> here http://www.openarchives.org/OAI/2.0/oai_dc.xsd

Daniel-Mietchen commented 10 years ago

Crucial point here seems to be comprehensiveness of coverage - as far as I know, OpenAIRE does not cover old articles well. Can't quantify that though.

See here: https://www.openaire.eu/schema/0.1/doc/oaf-0.1.html

Daniel-Mietchen commented 10 years ago

@mitar I don't see from that how much information OpenAIRE provides on older literature (say, pre-2000s).

mitar commented 10 years ago

No, that was answer to @wrought about license field.

I don't know about their range.

wrought commented 10 years ago

Interesting, @mitar, the definition and list of values for the license field look off:

License to access this actual manifestation of the publication or dataset. Available values are: 12 Months Embargo, 6 Months Embargo, Closed Access, Embargo, Open Access, Other, Restricted, UNKNOWN.. When several instances are available for the same publication, the opener license is selected as the bestlicese field in element result.

You do know about SHERPA/RoMEO? http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/

wrought commented 10 years ago

Yes, I am familiar. My comment was about how the openaire spec doesn't contain what we want to reveal: the specific license in use, namely is it a Creative Commons license or not?

I do not know. Ask them, write to them.

wrought commented 10 years ago

It's not a direct question, it seems clearly that their standard does not include the data we need.

IMHO, "license" should correspond to a "copyright license" not to some reductive term in a limited vocabulary (e.g. "open access")

so, for our project, it seems like we will not correspond to this standard, unless there is something I'm missing.

just posting on this issue for notes for later, thanks for the links.

Yes, I understand. But maybe write to them and ask them. I think that they want to be useful to such projects, so maybe they can also adapt or expose data you need.
