- 19. Purpose of exercise • Make legacy scientific literature citable via modern systems • Make 250+ years of scholarly communications available via new tools • Assign contemporary identifiers to legacy literature • DOI • ISBN • ISSN @chrisfreeland
- 20. DOI, ISBN, ISSN, ei, ei,…uh oh… • Ran into trouble with each agency • BHL isn’t a publisher • BHL is a consortium, not a separate legal entity • BHL doesn’t own all the content it serves • “We know we need a policy on that…” …and on…and on…for more than 3 years… @chrisfreeland
- 21. Challenge: Title Matching for Uniqueness • Only want 1 DOI per intellectual, citable unit • Differences between cataloging publishing • Libraries: datafield tag=245 ind1=1 ind2=4 subfield code=aThe amoebae living in man;/subfield subfield code=ba zoological monograph,/subfield subfield code=cby Clifford Dobell./subfield /datafield • Publishers: titleThe amoebae living in man; a zoological monograph/title @chrisfreeland
- 22. Challenge: Monographs/Series/Monographic Series • “Report on the Rhynchota collected by the Wollaston Expedition in Dutch New Guinea” • Published in 1914 • Bound catalogued as a monograph • Scanned as a monograph • Assigned a DOI as a monograph in BHL:http://dx.doi.org/10.5962/bhl.title.13791 • Transactions of the Zoological Society of London, vol. 20, pt. 11. • Presented by current publisher of that title as an article • Assigned a DOI as a journal article: http://dx.doi.org/10.1111/j.1469-7998.1912.tb07839x Guess who provides free access?
- 23. Challenge: Ownership of Backfiles • Who owns public domain works? • Some publishers consider they have ownership of backfiles for journals they currently publish • Long running series in natural history • Curtis’s Botanical Magazine, since 1787 • Those publishers assign DOIs to their current volumes • BHL assigns DOIs to the public domain works we’ve digitized Guess who is upset?
