The collection's logo

Project aim: Pilot a sustainable workflow that utilises Research Outputs Database (ROD) metadata, code developed by CONZUL, and the Scopus API, to automate the mass ingest of publication metadata into OUR Archive. 

Project status: Complete

Outcome: As of October 2020 there are 100 articles from the study now openly available via OUR Archive that were previously behind paywalls: https://ourarchive.otago.ac.nz/handle/10523/10061  OUR Archive statistics for the new collection already show significant views and downloads for the short period the material has been live.  The RSU worked closely with Copyright and Open Access Manager Richard White who contributed significantly to the project and its success.
