OMP 1.2, connecting with Pubmed, ISBNdb, CrossRef

Software Support Open Monograph Press

Hi all,
some users ask me ho to index their monographs with some services.
Sometimes it’s clear how to proceed, for instance:
Google Scholar → edit robots.txt
WorldCat → Add the repository OAI link to the interface
DataCite → It works out of the box using DOI numbers

But I can’t find the way for: PubMed, ISBNdb, CrossRef.

Reading some old posts I undestand that, for PubMed and ISBNdb, I have to add an API key somewere. Am I wrong? How can I apply this key?

For CrossRef I undestand tha I have to export an XML file with DOI and I have to upload it on their site. How to do this?

Thanks,
Alfredo

Hi @Alfredo_Cosco

There is a CrossRef import/export plugin (similar to the DataCite plugin) that you could use to export or even automatically deposit the XML to CrossRef.

For other i.e. PubMed and ISBNdb I don’t know :frowning: But please write it here, if you figure it out.

Best,
Bozana

Does the CrossRef plugin exist for OMP? If so, I would have expected to see it under plugins/importexport, but I don’t.

Ah, sorry, I haven’t seen OMP in title :frowning: True, it does not exist for OMP yet.

@Alfredo_Cosco

We still haven’t work on book DOI deposit, so I don’t know how the XML should actually look like, but maybe you can take a look here: http://www.crossref.org/08downloads/CrossRef_Schema_Documentation.pdf and the latest schema version: http://www.crossref.org/schemas/common4.3.6.xsd – maybe it helps you construct your XML for deposit.

Best,
