Catalogue

Creating, publishing and correcting records of books, chapters, journals, articles, proceedings papers, theses and children's books.

Permission needed
Create and edit publications, issues and files, Publish and unpublish catalogue records

Every publication on the public site is a catalogue record. Records of books, book chapters, journals, articles, proceedings papers, theses and children's books are created and edited on the Catalogue → Publications screen. The type of a record sets the required fields of the form and cannot be changed later.

A record starts as a draft, is sent to review and is published. A published record appears on the public site, in search, in the sitemap and in OAI-PMH. For a mistake in a published record, a correction note is added or the record is retracted. If the editor approval rule is on in your installation, the person who sent a record to review cannot publish it. The details of the rule are in Four-Eyes Principle.

The Data quality screen shows records with missing details, and the DOAB readiness screen shows whether books are ready for DOAB (the Directory of Open Access Books). For your first record, start with Creating a Catalogue Record.
