DOAB Metadata Upload Form

OA books in the OAPEN repository are automatically indexed in the DOAB provided they are published under a free to share license. DOAB in turn feeds into Library Hub Discover.

Ingest

DOAB would prefer to ingest data from Thoth via an OAI-PMH feed. Upon metadata retrieval the book will typically be live on DOAB within 5 working days.

The Thoth Wiki has been developed in the context of the COPIM (Community-led Open Publication Infrastructures for Monographs) project. Individual contributions to the wiki have been made by Tim Elfenbein, Joanne Fitzpatrick, Rupert Gatti, Ross Higman, Hannah Hillen, Brendan O'Connell, Tobias Steiner, and Vincent W.J. van Gerven Oei under the general editorship of Van Gerven Oei. All data are available under a CC-BY 4.0 license.
