Topics[edit]
- to discuss the design on the journal specific citation styles
Issues[edit]
- possibilties to cite a journal article in different ways depending on journal itself?
- shall these be allowed for journals in CoNE only?
- if not - what will happen, when a journal is not in CONE?
- how to relate CoNE journals and Citation styles definition (still keeping them loosely coupled as services?)
- How will the author know wich citation style is choosen for a journal of the article?
- What will happen, when 2 institutes do not have the same citation style for the same journal?
- What will happen when a jurist author write an article for non-jurist journal without special "CONE-Flag" (for example one of our directors writes for iX).
Approaches initially discussed[edit]
- A: make relations in CoNE to the citation style ID
- B: define Citaton Styles for a Journal may be CoNE ID or ISSN or Journal name etc.)
- both have cons/pros i.e.
- Approach A:
- Citation styles must be referencable (makes sense to have repository for citation styles)
- Citation manager i.e. Transformation (not clear which one at present) must always query CoNE (dependency)
- External citation web-services may be involved to deliver the citation
- Approach A:
- Approach B:
- Citation styles can be independent on CoNE (i.e. any metadata journal name, issn or CoNE ID can be used for selecting the appropriate citation to apply)
- External citation web-services may still be involved (transformation/export)
- Approach B:
Structuring the citation styles[edit]
- 1 citation style=1 journal ?
- 1 institute = 1 citation style ? (with journal-specific definitions)
Outcome 12.02.2010[edit]
- 1 citation style for JusCMS
- new function in CitStyle manager AskCone (journalId)
- Cone contains the Id(Name) of the layout element that should be applied for the journal
- cit manager has to cache relevant Cone data (performance issue)
- cache refreshement has to be triggered in a e.g. hourly interval
- cache refreshment contains only citstyle relevant journals
- variants for the institutes for same citstyle and same journal have to be checked if possible
- coneID of journal has to be in publication metadata
- Journal-spec citations are valid only for several JusCMS genres with source Journal
- Journal-spec citations will be handled as citation style layout elements
- Cone model modification for journals
