Preprints Servers as a Hub for Early-Stage Research Outputs
Description
Data for "Preprints as a Hub for Early-Stage Research Outputs"
This data set contains three documents results from a survey focused on how
preprint servers relate to open science. See http://researchpreprints.com/2017/12/18/a-short-research-project-where-do-preprints-fit-in/
for the research plan.
- submission systems and websites.xlsx
A check of submission pages for preprint servers. Opportunities to link to other early-stage
research outputs were recorded. Information displayed on websites was also checked on an
ad hoc basis.
- preprint abstracts.xlsx
A check of 25 or 50 preprints for selected preprint servers, to see what information linking
to other early-stage research outputs was visible.
- preprint operator survey
Individual responses from a survey of those operating preprint servers. Names and email addresses
were collected but are not reported.
