Author Identifiers in Scholarly Repositories
Bibliometric and usage-based analyses and tools highlight the value of
information about scholarship contained within the network of authors, articles
and usage data. Less progress has been made on populating and using the author
side of this network than the article side, in part because of the difficulty
of unambiguously identifying authors. I briefly review a sample of author
identifier schemes, and consider use in scholarly repositories. I then describe
preliminary work at arXiv to implement public author identifiers, services
based on them, and plans to make this information useful beyond the boundaries
of arXiv.Comment: 10 pages. Based on a presentation given at Open Repositories 200
Prophetic Imagination in the Light of Narratology and Disability Studies in Isaiah 40β48
Analyzes Isaiah 40β48 as a single literary work through levels of speakers (frame and subordinate) with implications for its construction of divine potency and communication
Eprints and the Open Archives Initiative
The Open Archives Initiative (OAI) was created as a practical way to promote
interoperability between eprint repositories. Although the scope of the OAI has
been broadened, eprint repositories still represent a significant fraction of
OAI data providers. In this article I present a brief survey of OAI eprint
repositories, and of services using metadata harvested from eprint repositories
using the OAI protocol for metadata harvesting (OAI-PMH). I then discuss
several situations where metadata harvesting may be used to further improve the
utility of eprint archives as a component of the scholarly communication
infrastructure.Comment: 13 page
