Use of CrossRef and OAI-PMH to Enrich Bibliographical Databases

چکیده
Introduction Today prominent and comprehensive databases such as Thomson Reuters’ Web of Science (WoS) or Elsevier’s Scopus are highly in use for bibliometric research. However, these databases do not index full texts hindering researchers to carry out more detailed analyses. Besides, it is possible that some indexed publications do not have DOI numbers playing an important role to access full texts. This paper focuses on how these abovementioned deficiencies might be overcome by harnessing the Web sources CrossRef and OAIPMH. Glenisson, Glänzel, Janssens, & De Moor (2005) and Alexandrov, Gelbukh, & Rosso (2005) stated and showed that full text can have an added value in comparison to abstract and title combination when mapping or clustering disciplines and subfields are in question. Therefore, automatic, rapid and free access to full texts of scientific publications might yield a significant contribution to bibliometric research.
