TITLE=OpenVIVO: Transparency in Scholarship JOURNAL=Frontiers in Research Metrics and Analytics VOLUME=2 YEAR=2018 URL=https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/research-metrics-and-analytics/articles/10.3389/frma.2017.00012 DOI=10.3389/frma.2017.00012 ISSN=2504-0537 ABSTRACT=

OpenVIVO is a free and open-hosted semantic web platform that anyone can join and that gathers and shares open data about scholarship in the world. OpenVIVO, based on the VIVO open-source platform, provides transparent access to data about the scholarly work of its participants. OpenVIVO demonstrates the use of persistent identifiers, the automatic real-time ingest of scholarly ecosystem metadata, the use of VIVO-ISF and related ontologies, the attribution of work, and the publication and reuse of data—all critical components of presenting, preserving, and tracking scholarship. The system was created by a cross-institutional team over the course of 3 months. The team created and used RDF models for research organizations in the world based on Digital Science GRID data, for academic journals based on data from CrossRef and the US National Library of Medicine, and created a new model for attribution of scholarly work. All models, data, and software are available in open repositories.
