- OATP uses social tagging to capture news and comment on open access (OA) to research, in real time, and organize it by tag or subtopic. The project publishes a primary feed of new OA developments, and hundreds of secondary feeds on OA subtopics, one for every project tag.
- OATP runs on TagTeam, open-source software specifically written for OATP and now available for social-tagging projects on any topic. TagTeam stores all OATP tag records for deduping, export, preservation, modification, and searching.
- OATP launched in April 2009, and you can find a full-length description of it in the SPARC Open Access Newsletter for May 2009. It started on Connotea and moved to TagTeam in September 2012.
