Article metadata in institutional repositories gonzalez
This document discusses representing serials metadata in institutional repositories. It provides examples of metadata practices from various universities' institutional repositories, including the use of Dublin Core, Highwire Press, and other schema to represent journal article metadata. Elements like titles, authors, publication details are described. The document also considers use cases like open access availability, integration with reference managers and link resolvers, and improving discoverability of article versions in repositories.

- 3. Consider Discoverability “Ifyou're using repository or journal management software, such as Eprints, DSpace, Digital Commons or OJS, please configure it to export bibliographic data in HTML "<meta>" tags. Google Scholar supports Highwire Press tags (e.g., citation_title), Eprints tags (e.g., eprints.title), BE Press tags (e.g., bepress_citation_title), and PRISM tags (e.g., prism.title). Use Dublin Core tags (e.g., DC.title) as a last resort - they work poorly for journal papers because Dublin Core doesn't have unambiguous fields for journal title, volume, issue, and page numbers.” Google Scholar Indexing Guidelines, https://scholar.google.com/intl/en- us/scholar/inclusion.html#indexing .

Editor's Notes
- #7 The first place we look for a repository's policies is its OAI-PMH Identify response (e.g. for Nottingham EPrints - http://eprints.nottingham.ac.uk/perl/oai2?verb=Identify). This often includes standard sections for policies. Alternatively, we look for a relevant web page in the repository - a special 'Policies' page or an 'About' page. We then analyse the policies using standard criteria, an assign a grade for each policy. If we are unable to find any policy information at all, the status is set to 'Unknown'. If there is information on policies, but the particular policy is not covered, the status is set to 'Unstated'. In some cases, there may be a slot for the relevant policy, but all it says is 'not yet defined'. In these cases we set the status to 'Undefined’.
- #9 Sorted the OpenDoar list of repositories to find the largest, and then picked examples from particular platforms.
- #10 University of Michigan Deep Blue example – has some special fields added to DSpace? Zotero detects this metadata as Embedded Metadata. The OAI-PMH URL is listed in OpenDOAR. DC.type “Article” and Highwire Press tags in the HTML <head> element are basically DSpace out of the box; i.e., you don’t have to customize these, but Dspace already has the SEO features built in
- #12 The University of Queensland eSpace IR is able to add additional information about articles through its scoping feature – this includes a limiter for journal articles and also for Scopus article. Where does this information come from?
- #14 Columbia University has a Fedora repository with a MODS schema, right? They support OAI-PMH - http://academiccommons.columbia.edu/catalog/oai?verb=Identify. Appears to be MODS only, or is this Highwire Press? The save to Zotero is DOI.
- #15 MODS metadata plus additional <meta> tags Includes Publisher and CU DOIs
- #16 MODS metadata plus additional <meta> tags Includes Publisher and CU DOIs
- #17 eLIS and Google Scholar – could not retrieve metadata via Zotero for PDF I found in Google Scholar. Saves to Zotero as Embedded Metadata, but as a web page.
- #19 University of Nebraska has BePress repository, which uses BePress tags. BePress can be shared through OCLC(?), and is working with Google? Can’t see Citation or DOI in metatags, but they do appear on main screen display; no volume, issue, page range or DOI saves to Zotero. Saves as article in Zotero as CoinS.
- #21 This example has almost all of the expected elements of traditional journal citation. This example saves to Zotero as a DOI. Look for ISSNs in all my examples. Bielefeld is on the Linking Open Data (LOD) Cloud diagram, but their OpenDOAR listing that their metadata re-use policy is explicitly undefined. According to linked data model, however, they have published the dataset themselves, rather than relying on others to harvest it themselves, perhaps? Two different approaches – active to publish, passive to let it be harvested? Saves to Zotero as DOI.
- #23 This example also saves to Zotero as DOI; includes full citation, DOI, ISSN, cross ref, and link to wiley’s website in the Zotero citation. One of the DC.identifier’s is the PubMed ID, which links to the pubmed article in the display.
- #27 Example of local adaptations that people may make – these are the adaptations I looked to make with ContentDM
- #28 Are we satisfied with the lack of best practices? Is it sufficient to use DC, MODS, BePress, Highwire tags as needed for our own particular context? What would we do if we shared the data more broadly? Is linking on citation title enough? Focused on examples that were the most extensive – many data dictionaries focus on controlled vocabulary, which is primarily subject terms, but can be other things(?). CSU also focused on authority control for names. CSU does include a prefix for their internal identifier schema, which includes a prefix for articles as genre; the purpose of this is statistical purposes (p.24).
- #31 Compare how Zotero finds article citation information – how does it break out all the needed citation elements from an IR? Zotero is also dependent on Google Scholar to do some of the work for PDFs – essentially, if it can be found in Google Scholar, and you save a copy of the article from the IR, you should be able to use the Retreive Metadata for PDF feature, but this doesn’t always work, for instance with Kousha and Thelwall article, even though it is in eprints – I found this article searching Google, not the IR interface that it is in, so it is important for the PDF to have embedded metadata, since I did not end up on the landing page in the IR for this article. Eprints.rclis.org has embedded metadata that was inconsistent; it was able to identify a conference paper, but a journal article was identified by Zotero as a web page – the de robbio article from example slide. The de robbio article captured the journal title as the website title, and website type as journal article.
- #32 Give demo of adding OpenDOAR to SFX as discoverability.
- #33 You can link to Google Scholar from citation to this document in an IR from WorldCat, but it is using the getWebSearch link in SFX, which is a keyword title search. Remember, the basis of Google Scholar’s links is the citation title, not the journal title. The link is available in WorldCat because of Esevier’s partnership with OCLC.
