Posted Content(aka preprints)

Crossref Community Day Webinar – Sept 8, 2016
Crossref’s deposit schema – some observationsCrossref’s deposit schema has very successfully handled formal publications which are generally published with industry identifiers ISSN and/or ISBN often as well as a DOI.• Journals, books (individual volumes or in a series) and conference proceedings• These are “containers” holding articles, chapters and papers.Crossref’s deposit schema was overhauled in 2015 as it
relates to standards. This effort, lead by the standards community, modified the schema to better represent standards publications centered on ‘standard designators’
- some observations (continued)
Crossref’s deposit schema has been a bit sloppy in handling of reports, papers and dissertations. It intermingled formal publication of this content with less formal posting of this content.
Our deposit schema has long supported data, and continues to do so. It handles this content as not formally published and has liberally (correctly so) been applied to a variety of content ranging from training videos to economic data sheets as well as raw data.
Crossref’s deposit schema – fixes and improvements
The community is focused on preprints.
So is Crossref. We are taking this opportunity to make improvements and fix some warts.
Published
Adopt the concept of Published versus Posted *
Mostly stuff that has an ISSN or ISBN where content items are grouped into publications
Fixes and improvements
Posted Mostly stuff that has been accepted for posting to a platform or site that might organize postings into topics or subject groupings
(* but we’re not making a judgment about quality or value, we just need a way to organize stuff)
Fixes and improvements
Both published and posted may undergo processes imposed by their hosting organization to maintain quality, enforce standards, address availability … etc … etc … etc
Crossref’s only concern relates to persistence.

Crossref’s deposit schema will be fixed to require ISSN and/or ISBN with the report-paper and dissertation content types.
If content is not formally published it should be deposited as posted-content, if its in a published work continue to use existing report-paper or dissertation content types.
Prior deposited content will be reviewed, members will be encouraged to re-deposit to use the correct content type.
