ERC-OAPEN-2017 | Support towards the OAPEN initiative (2018-2019)

Summary
This project supports OAPEN to enlarge the quality controlled collection of open access books already hosted by the OAPEN Library, and to develop additional services for publishers, libraries and research funders in the areas of dissemination, quality assurance and digital preservation.
The project specifically intends to enlarge the collection of OA books and chapters relating to research funded through ERC grants, by aggregating these publications and enabling publishers and authors to deposit these publications directly into the OAPEN Library.
The project will develop new components to increase the visibility and usage of the ERC collection, to improve integration with OpenAIRE, and to increase the understanding of societal and scholarly impact of ERC publications through an Altmetrics service.
New components include:
- Collection view: a separate website providing a branded view of the ERC collection, thereby improving the overall visibility of the collection;
- Research grant information: adding standard information from ERCEA and other sources to provide additional information about the research connected to the publication, improving discoverability and usage of the ERC collection;
- Review linking: exploring whether it is possible to link to reviews of publications, to promote these publications and increase usage.
