Talk:Springer Open Choice Data Transfer

Overview of 1. Workflow variante, before revision in March 2009
Springer
 * after acceptance process: corresponding author tags that paper any creator is affiliated with MPG Note: Currently, this information is not checked automatically (e.g. by comparing the author's affiliation with the selection), therefore MPG articles could be missing or external articles could be mapped incorrectly
 * publication gets processed, e.g. metadata is created, pdf is generated
 * Springer's data delivery service (dds) runs an export job on a regular base and makes the information available to MPG

MPG needs to be defined and should specify following actions and the corresponding responsibilities
 * download data
 * check for plausibility and correctness How to create "nachforderungen" an springer? (only manually, maybe once a year)
 * download from Springer ftp server
 * upload to subversion repository (e.g https://devtools.mpdl.mpg.de/repos/mdbase) The repository is checked out daily to a web server which is access restricted to the MPG IP range (see http://devtools.mpdl.mpg.de/mdbase/trunk/springer_openchoice), thus the original data would become available to other interested users in MPG.
 * upload to edoc:
 * transforming Springer data into internal format
 * upload into one Open Choice Collection
 * merging existing records with springer data - won't be done automatically
 * notification of MPG librarians, including
 * list of journals
 * list of affiliations
 * list of authors
 * should be further checked with librarians

Open Issues:
 * negotiate requirements regarding data delivery (issued material only, monthly processing) with springer - Done. Results as follows:
 * issued material only; monthly processed; every month delivery of the new material, only; no additional cumulative file.
 * plan extensions required for edoc (copy with full text, tag copied items, define metadata mapping)
 * assign priorities within the team
 * communicate results to MPG libraries, invite them for comments
