Fwd: DOAB (Directory of Open Access Books): now over 8, 000 books from over 200 publishers
by Subbiah Arunachalam 10 Jul '17

10 Jul '17

From: Julie Therizols <julie.therizols(a)openedition.org> Date: Thu, 6 Jul 2017 11:26:46 +0200 New Features, New Publishers and Growth Growth and new publishers We now have over 8000 books from over 200 publishers listed in DOAB. We are happy to say DOAB consistently features among the fastest growing OA resources in the blog post on ‘Dramatic Growth of Open Access’ <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> by Heather Morrison in The Imaginary Journal of Poetic Economics. This year DOAB features as number one and two in growth by percentage, with a 68% growth for books and 40% for publishers in the past year. Since the start of 2017, we have added 50 new publishers to DOAB. An important contribution to this year’s growth is thanks to our cooperation with OpenEdition <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…>, who added the OA books of 26 new publishers, among others: Presses Sorbonne Nouvelle, Presses universitaires d'Aix-Marseille and Presses universitaires de Rennes. Other new publishers listed in DOAB in 2017 are: LIBRUM Publishers, University of North Texas Press, Edition Open Access, Carl Grossmann Verlag, Heidelberg University Publishing and through our cooperation with SciELO: Editus and Editora UEPG. New features DOAB: chapter level metadata and ONIX import DOAB is taking part in a European Horizon 2020 project (HIRMEOS), to develop a certification service for OA book publishers. As part of this project, new features are being added to DOAB. It is now possible to distinguish between chapters and books. A chapter is clearly indicated at the publication’s record. Also, funder information is now included in the metadata. Have a look at this example <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> of a chapter where both additions are in place. Another important new feature of DOAB is the possibility for publishers to get their publications and metadata indexed in DOAB through ONIX XML import. If you are a publisher in DOAB and would like to know more about ONIX import, please contact our technical coordinator Ronald Snijder. <r.snijder(a)oapen.org> FWF certifies DOAB sponsor De Gruyter as publisher for open access books Researchers affiliated with FWF (Austrian Science Fund) <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…>, who choose to publish their research output in pure open access with DOAB publisher and sponsor De Gruyter <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…>, can have publication costs fully covered by FWF. The program helps authors focus on their research, while paperwork and payments are processed jointly by the FWF and the publisher. The offer applies to articles, books and book chapters, provided the main/corresponding author’s Institution is affiliated with the FWF. All open access books published by De Gruyter are indexed by DOAB <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…> .

Authors and publishers can deposit relevant research publications directly in the OAPEN Library. The service is intended for books and chapters based on research funded by OAPEN’s partners: the European Research Council, <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…> Wellcome <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e…>, and the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) <http://doabooks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=314fa411ba5eaaee7244c95e1…> .

Resource Description and Access

*** Our apologies for cross-posting this message*** Resource Description and Access <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/07/resource-description-and-…> Glossary of Library & Information Science - RESOURCE DESCRIPTION AND ACCESS (RDA) <https://librarianshipstudies.blogspot.com/2017/07/resource-description-and-…> ➨ RDA stands for “Resource Description and Access” and is the title of the standard, that is the successor to AACR2. Resource Description and Access (RDA) is a standard for descriptive cataloging providing instructions and guidelines on formulating bibliographic data. Resource Description & Access (RDA) is a set of cataloging instructions based on FRBR and FRAD, for producing the description and name and title access points representing a resource. RDA offers libraries the potential to change significantly how bibliographic data is created and used. RDA is a standard for resource description and access designed for the digital world. It provides (i) A flexible framework for describing all resources (analog and digital) that is extensible for new types of material, (ii) Data that is readily adaptable to new and emerging database structures, (iii) Data that is compatible with existing records in online library catalogs. RDA is a package of data elements, guidelines, and instructions for creating library and cultural heritage resource metadata that are well-formed according to international models for user-focused linked data applications. RDA goes beyond earlier cataloging codes in that it provides guidelines on cataloging digital resources and places a stronger emphasis on helping users find, identify, select, and obtain the information they want. RDA also supports the clustering of bibliographic records in order to show relationships between works and their creators.
