[GOAL] Unpaywall: Our new Chrome extension finds OA as you browse

[Tomasz Lewandowski]

Great news!

Spreading them through our social media right now.

If I'm running a repository (DSpace in this case), can I make sure (and 
how can I make sure) that papers stored in there are free to find for 
Unpaywall?

Same question for bigger, but custom quasi-GoldOA service, technically a 
repository, but papers are gathered via agreements with particular small 
journal publishers, not by self-archiving.

Both services are providing standard metadata via OAI-PMH and on record 
page, both in DC and Highwire (GoogleScholar-wise) formats. Do we need 
to provide any special metadata in order to be aggregated by Unpaywall?


Best regards,
