HAMR: Human/Authority Metadata Reconciliation
Sean Chen, Tim Donohue, Joshua Gomez, Ranti Junus, Ryan Scherle
A tool for a curator to determine whether the various fields of a metadata record are correct. Takes a metadata record, locates any identifiers (e.g., DOI, PMID). Retrieves a copy of the metadata record from an authoritative source (e.g., CrossRef, PubMed). Displays a human-readable page that compares fields in the initial record with fields in the authoritative record. Each field is color-coded based on how well it matches, so the curator can quickly identify discrepancies.
Focus:
- Dublin core (maybe qualified)
- framework that allows multiple authority sources
- NOT focusing on author names (ORCID is already working on this), except the fact that they are strings, and we'll do basic string matching
Possible authority sources:
- pubmed - Sample pubmed query (in Java): DSpace PubMedPrefill (From Populate Metadata from PubMed)
- crossref
- google scholar - does it have an API?
- mendeley - Mendeley API
- vivo
- bibapp
