Harvard Open Access Project (HOAP) » Open Access Tracking Project (OATP) » Use OATP for research on OA
Search OATP by tag and/or keyword.
- Every item ever tagged for OATP is stored for searching.
- You can find the search engine here, or in the OATP hub at the bottom of the left sidebar.
- You don't need a TagTeam account or any permissions in the OATP hub to run searches.
- The search engine covers all OATP tag records back to the launch of the project in 2009. We're also tagging items retroactively, and the index now includes many items from before 2009.
- TagTeam has a very powerful search engine. To learn the ropes, see the section on searching in the TagTeam manual. Preview: You can search tags, keywords, or both. You can run phrase searches, wildcard searches, or boolean searches. You can bookmark any search, create a new feed from the results of any search, or add the results of any search to a remix feed combining many different OATP feeds.
Find the tags already in use that best fit your topic.
- As you find works relevant to your research, make sure they're already tagged with those tags.
- For this you'll need to become a tagger for OATP.
- Do your best to make those tags retroactively comprehensive, and tell us. then we'll label them as retroactively comprehensive on our page of project tags.
If some aspect of your topic doesn't yet have an OATP tag...
- Make up a good one and tell us. We might add it to the [OATP-tags | list of project tags].
- Or consult with us and we can come up with a good one in light of the set of existing OATP tags.
- Then make that tag retroactively comprehensive, and tell us.
- If you wonder whether OATP already has a tag for a certain meaning, ask us.
- Share the URLs of the feeds from the tags relevant to your topic.
- If you publicize your feeds, and invite people to follow them, then when you discover and tag new items, you'll be alerting a whole research community, including members of your own research team. You'll also be making it easy to re-discover those items with an OATP search, or to list them with an OATP feed URL.
Please cite OATP.
- If you use OATP in your research, please give us credit.
