17. Primo: current situation
Bibliographic metadata formats usually don’t have fields
for research information
In Primo:
Add-ons needed, two approaches:
• Harvesting extra author and publication identifiers
• Text mining + semantic analysis

48. Experiences Mannheim
● Metadata of research data and publications rarely
contain links
● Many different reference styles
● References to research data mostly incomplete
● Integration can be very hard, e.g. adapting the
metadata format and performing transformations
● First evaluation result?

49. Experiences Amsterdam
● Local Amsterdam repository and CRIS not optimal
for reuse and linking (yet)
● No references to research datasets, projects in local,
national and global systems (yet)
● Research project information not available
● Library systems in general not equipped for
○ non-bibliographic information
○ processing linked data, RDF
● Primo CAN be used for this, with lots of extra work

50. Pros and Cons (Mannheim)
Pro
● Links can be easily
integrated, e.g. by
using Enrichments
● Integration of
research data to have
only one system
Con
● Fulltexts are needed
to identify references
● Integration very costly
without standardized
interface

51. Pros and Cons (Amsterdam)
Pro
● Identifiers are ready to
use
● Links can be easily
integrated
● Extra information can be
embedded in extra tab
in UI, but with
workarounds
Con
● Identifiers, RDF not
always available in data
sources
● PNX format not suited
for research
information
● Integration very costly
without standardized
interface

52. Recommendations Ex Libris
Primo
• Include non-bibliographic metadata in PNX
o (links section, additional data section, new
research section?)
• Harvest RDF
• Resolve RDF/URIs
o During normalisation (in PNX)
o On the fly (in search result)
• Easily create extra tab with PNX data
• Publish Primo Central index as linked open data
• Primo Central: harvest research information

53. Recommendations Publishers, Aggregators
• Add additional references
• Add additional metadata
o Publication ID
o Author ID
o Research project ID
o Dataset ID
• Publish as Linked Open Data

54. Recommendations Researchers, Authors
• Proper citation of research data, e.g. by using
unique identifiers like DOIs
• Publish and register research data as open as
possible
● Many interesting ideas/projects:
○ OpenScience
○ DataCite
○ OpenAIRE
○ DCC
○ RD-A
○ W3C-ROSC

55. Like a bridge over troubled water
When times get rough
When you’re down and out
I will ease your mind
