Thanks very much John

 

In the case of Conference Proceedings, this is the aim that this Item Type only includes items that are in scope of the HEFCE OA Policy.  Then we would remove Conference Item from the REF CC, as we would then only use this for conference papers presented at a conference (so not in scope).  Articles is slightly different, this currently includes some items that are not in scope – e.g. Book Reviews and Newspaper Articles.  So I would be interested in the additional work you are doing, once it is released,  to extend this to more tightly define what is in and out of scope within our Articles Item Type.  

 

Best wishes,

Hi Annette,

Will you have clearly defined item types that are in- and out-of- scope?

 

If so, in a new config file e.g.

~/archives/ARCHIVEID/cfg/cfg.d/z_hefce_oa_triggers_local.pl

Add thie following:

$c->{hefce_oa}->{item_types} = ['article', 'conference_item', 'conference_proceeding'];

 

-          Including all the item types you want to consider in-scope (the default only has 'article' and 'conference_item').

 

If not, I've done some preliminary work to extend this so you can more tightly define what is in- and out-of- scope e.g. "an article OR a conference_item, that has an ISSN", but this hasn't been released yet.

 

Out of interest, do you read the documentation here: http://eprintsug.github.io/hefce_oa/? It currently doesn't provide the answer, but could/should be updated with the details.

 

Cheers,

John
