How the API works
The interface harvests metadata from faculty members' publications indexed in Scopus for easy reviewing and uploading to the IR. A single search will pull all the Scopus metadata records for your institution's authors. Simply review and mark metadata for uploading to your Digital Commons IR, creating instant records that reflect your institution’s full research output.
The Scopus harvesting integration means you can quickly populate a Digital Commons repository and push it live in record time. Routine harvesting of Scopus metadata ensures your IR is easily kept up-to-date.
