Querying CrossRef (alternate titles)

CrossRefSystem

???????????????????????

I’m not sure if this is right, I’m

not going to use it. Also, I am going to blog

about this every day for a week.

Are you sure? My query says the journal title for that DOI is ‘Feline Obesity Online’

‘Fe Weight Man’ is an alternate spelling of

‘Feline Obesity Online

Later, after a DOI-to-metadata query…

Do you have a DOI for this citation:

Surname, R, O’Name, W. 1962. Epidemiology of canine and feline obesity. Fe Weight Man 8:445-452.

Querying CrossRef (no alternate titles)

*sigh* I guess I can’t link to this article…my well-funded colleagues will have to find online

research elsewhere.

CrossRefSystem

No.

Give me DOIs for ISSN 6666-6666

*beep* here is coverage dating back

to 1953

CMS

UMMM coverage for this journal begins in 2011…

Thank you have a nice

day

Harvesting CrossRef data

CrossRefSystem

OAI-PMH Harvester

What you can do:

Verify your titles are correct in our system:

Title list: www.crossref.org/titleList/

Title .csv file: http://www.crossref.org/titlelist/titleFile.csv (+5MB)

XML journal list: http://www.crossref.org/xref/xml/mddb.xml

Follow best practices for managing titles:

All series (journal, book, conference proceedings) must have an ISSN.

A distinct ISSN must be supplied for each distinct version of a title. ISSNs may (and should) be assigned retroactively.

Online versions of journals encompassing multiple historic print titles should each be assigned distinct print and online ISSNs.

Journals should be deposited under the original title

Deleting DOIsQ: How can I delete my DOIs?

Short answer:

DOIs can’t be deleted

Ugly truth:Sometimes they need to be deleted:

Created in error (usually without permission)

Unsustainable

Not assigned to DOI-worthy content

“ ”10.5555/whoops

Current Procedure

① Update DOI with deletion metadata DOIs are assigned to “CrossRef Journal of

Deleted DOIs”, other metadata is overwritten

② Direct DOI to CrossRef error page

http://www.crossref.org/deleted_DOI.html

Deletion Criteria

Delete soon after creation – DOIs that have been queried and used in citations shouldn’t be deleted

Use CrossRef procedures – Don’t redirect DOIs to our page unless you plan to maintain them

-or-

Implement your own procedures with CrossRef consent – we encourage this

Alternatives to deletionAliasing –

Most DOI deletion requests can be solved with aliasing

✔10.5555/good_doi ✖10.5555/bad_doi

✔10.5555/good_doi

10.5555/bad_doi

DOI query for DOI 10.5555/bad_doi metadata for 10.5555/good_doi

http://dx.doi.org/10.5555/bad_doi http://dx.doi.org/10.5555/good_doi

Other alternatives

Maintain the DOIs if possible
