Switching to OAI-PMH harvesting Liv Fugl, IPU The Danish National Research Database
- a bit of history • Started in 1988 by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation • Sponsored by DEFF since 1998 • Contains Litterature, Projects and Persons • Currently holds around 300.000 records • Suppliers are universities, higher educ.
Advantages on OAI vs. Batch • Data is up to date in DDF right from supplier enters the data • Using a schema, data is being validated • It’s independent from human interaction • With schema validated data we can extract more exact statistics on publication rates among the suppliers, document types, the no. of peer reviewed publications etc.
What does it take for the suppliers? • They need to setup a support for the OAI-PMH • They need to support the new format for metadata-exchange: MXD • Will take little human effort when it’s up and running
Some practical demo: • The new DDF • Harvesting admin interface
The next steps: • Sharing the data with Google Scholar • Setting up an OAI export for others to harvest
