Bibliographic Metadata

DOI ➞ Landing Page ➞ Bibliographic Resources

The use of Typed Links in the HTTP Link header is illustrated for the paper:

Robatian, D. The Fixed-Point Property Under Induced Interval Maps of Continua. Journal of Mathematical Sciences 215, 3 (Jun. 2016), 376–386. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8.

This is a summary of the links that should be provided:

The HTTP DOI URI should provide a link with the describedby relation type pointing at the Bibliographic Resource provided by the DOI Registration agency (e.g. CrossRef). The link should have type attribute to convey the format of the metadata.
The Bibliographic Resource provided by the DOI Registration agency should provide a link with the describes relation type pointing back to the HTTP DOI URI.
The landing page should provide a link with the describedby relation type pointing to each associated Bibliographic Resource, both those provided by the portal itself and by the DOI Registration agency. Each link should use the type attribute (and the profile attribute, if needed) to specify the metadata format.
Each Bibliographic Resource provided by the portal should provide a link with the describes relation type pointing back to the landing page.

Link Headers for the Bibliographic Metadata pattern

The HTTP Link Header to link to metadata from the DOI URI
https://doi.org/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8 is:

curl -I "https://doi.org/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8"

Link: <https://doi.org/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8>


                    ; rel="describedby"

                    ;
              type="application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json"

The HTTP Link header to link from the CrossRef Metadata URI
http://data.crossref.org/10.1007%2Fs10958-016-2844-8 is
(in the example metadata in the application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json format is requested):

curl -I -H "Accept: application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json" "http://data.crossref.org/10.1007%2Fs10958-016-2844-8"

Link: <https://doi.org/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8>


                    ; rel="describes"

The HTTP Link Header to link to metadata from the Landing Page URI
http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10958-016-2844-8 is:

curl -I "http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007%2Fs10958-016-2844-8"

Link: <http://citation-needed.services.springer.com/v2/references/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8?format=refman&flavour=citation>


                    ; rel="describedby"

                    ;
              type="application/x-research-info-systems",

                    <http://citation-needed.services.springer.com/v2/references/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8?format=bibtex&flavour=citation>


                    ; rel="describedby"

                    ; type="application/x-bibtex",

                    <https://doi.org/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8>


                    ; rel="describedby"

                    ;
              type="application/vnd.citationstyles.csl+json"

The HTTP Link header to link from the Metadata RIS URI
http://citation-needed.services.springer.com/v2/references/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8?format=refman&flavour=citation is:

curl -I "http://citation-needed.services.springer.com/v2/references/10.1007/s10958-016-2844-8?format=refman&flavour=citation"
