  2. Introduction How can we help repository administrators validate the completeness and accuracy of their repository holdings? Enquiry, Development and Support. • Understand the problems faced by repository owners.

  3. Community Engagement Concerns: • Does our repository content accurately reflect the published output of our institution? • Is our bibliographic metadata accurate and complete? • Are our publications correctly and unambiguously associated with the right authors, editors, contributors?

  4. Case Studies • We have been involved in investigating solutions to specific instances of the three concerns.

  5. Case Study 1 – Publication Matching • Does our repository content accurately reflect the published output of our institution? • The repository is used to drive an internal approval workflow. • Approval is required before submission to publishers. • Very early deposit. • Problems: • Are published items approved? • Are approved items published?

  6. Publication Matching • Collate lists of known published work • Import list into the repository and run a publication match process. • Generate a report for the administrator • Provide tools to act on the data generated.

  10. Publication Matching • Future work: • Generalise the framework to support the requirements for another organisation. • Merge with the concepts behind the meta data update script. • End Goal: • Validation tool framework that will allow for matching a dataset using a comparison function. • Plugin support for custom lists (held in a reference manager database), existing services (using DOIs or Pub Med Ids) and new emerging sources (ORCiD). • Integrate the reporting with IRStats2.

  11. Case Study 2 – Authority Lists • Is our bibliographic metadata accurate and complete? • Accuracy of journal and publisher information was affecting the efficiency of both the repository's editorial team and its submitters. • Direct impact on funding allocation. • The data collected by the editorial team could be utilised more effectively if it was integrated into the submission process.

  12. Authority Lists • A database of journal information (JDB) was developed. • Retrieve journal and publisher data for an item via an interactive dialog. • Users can search other external databases. • In the worst case the user can manually enter the data.

  20. Case Study 3 – Author Disambiguation • Are our publications correctly and unambiguously associated with the right authors, editors, contributors? • Common problem. • Leverage “single sign-on data”. • Replace free-text input fields • Possibility of utilising contributor data in other ways: • Subjects • Affiliations

  25. Road Map • Our goal is to produce a set of tools and procedures for the repository community. • Q3 • Publication Matching • Author disambiguation • Q4 • Authority Lists • Consolidation • Reflection • Generalisation
