Versions of the secondary project feeds

The secondary project feeds cover OA subtopics. OATP supports a large and growing series of subtopic tags, each of which generates a feed.

• To read the feed for a given OATP tag, first pick the tag and then create the feed URL using one of the following patterns. These examples use the tag oa.policies. To follow a different tag, just replace oa.policies with the tag of your choice. (All OATP tags are lower-case only.)
  1. HTML version = http://tagteam.harvard.edu/hubs/oatp/tag/oa.policies
  2. RSS version = http://tagteam.harvard.edu/hubs/oatp/tag/rss/oa.policies
  3. Atom version = http://tagteam.harvard.edu/hubs/oatp/tag/atom/oa.policies
  4. JSONP version = http://tagteam.harvard.edu/hubs/oatp/tag/json/oa.policies?callback=callback

• In addition to tag-based secondary feeds, you can build secondary feeds on taggers or boolean searches.
