Investigating open access publications of Universität Leipzig

Luckily, UL gives us a REST-endpoint to get all of its publications for a given year (aka a unsecured search endpoint that does not limit the number of returned results).

  1. We call this endpoint by running ./load_publications.sh.
  2. We then extract all DOIs using ./extract_dois.sh.
  3. We generate a list of calls to the DOI rest api using ./generate_url_calls.sh
  4. We then load meta data for each publication using ./download_json.sh
  5. These are then parsed using jq in ./process_json.sh

This gives us a jsonl file that can be used for further analysis.
