Thanks Dana. On our to-do list. :)

It would be nice if 'Paperity' would maintain a listing of the
publishers of the journals they index.
T-R does this for Web of Science Journal Citation Reports, and it is
very helpful.

Marcin,
May I ask "what is the economic model of Paperity?"
I didn't find any information about that on your web site.
Cheers

Jeroen,
Thanks, it's great to hear that you like Paperity!
"True peer-reviewed" means published in a peer-reviewed journal, in
contrast to a pdf just posted somewhere on the web (think Google
Scholar), which can be anything: a peer-reviewed paper or not,
published or not, even randomly generated to resemble a scholarly
article, for example to pump up G Scholar citations
(http://arxiv.org/abs/1212.0638).
The new technology is called REgular Document EXpressions (redex). It
is a computer language for analyzing long and complex documents,
particularly written in a markup, like HTML or XML. It facilitates
analysis of web context where the paper occured, which is critical
for maintaining the link between the paper and its journal. Redex
builds on top of the very fundamental technology of regular
expressions (regex), but redefines the language entirely to make it
suitable for large structured texts.
Best,
Marcin

Marcin,
This is a great initiative. I had been hoping BASEsearch would take
on this task, but it is good to see others are stepping in.
Congrats on the initiative. Still, a long way to go
Could you elaborate on how your technology is able to recognize
“true peer reviewed papers” and what you consider to be “ true peer
reviewed papers”?
Best,

*Subject:* [GOAL] Paperity launched. The 1st multidisciplinary
aggregator of OA journals & papers
(press release, apologies for cross-posting)
*With the beginning of the new academic year, Paperity
<http://paperity.org>, the first multidisciplinary aggregator of
Open Access journals and papers, has been launched. Paperity will
connect authors with readers, boost dissemination of new discoveries
and consolidate academia around open literature.*
Right now, Paperity <http://paperity.org> (http://paperity.org/)
includes over 160,000 open articles, "gold" and "hybrid", from 2,000
scholarly journals, and growing. The goal of the team is to cover -
with the support of journal editors and publishers - 100% of Open
Access literature in 3 years from now. In order to achieve this,
Paperity utilizes an original technology for article indexing,
designed by Marcin Wojnarski, a data geek from Poland and a medalist
of the International Mathematical Olympiad. This technology indexes
only true peer-reviewed scholarly papers and filters out irrelevant
entries, which easily make it into other aggregators and search engines.
The amount of scholarly literature has grown enormously in the last
decades. Successful dissemination became a big issue. New tools are
needed to help readers access vast amounts of literature dispersed
all over the web and to help authors reach their target audience.
Moreover, research is interdisciplinary now and scholars need broad
access to literature from many fields, also from outside of their
core research area. This is the reason why Paperity covers all
subjects, from Sciences, Technology, Medicine, through Social
Sciences, to Humanities and Arts.
- /There are lots of great articles out there which report new
significant findings, yet attract no attention, only because they
are hard to find. No more than top 10% of research institutions have
good access to communication channels and can share their findings
efficiently. The remaining 90%, especially authors from developing
countries and early-career researchers, start from a much lower
stand and often stay unnoticed despite high quality of their work/ –
says Wojnarski. He adds that it is not by accident that Paperity
partners right now with the EU Contest for Young Scientists, the
biggest science fair in Europe. With the help of Paperity, the
Contest wants to improve dissemination of discoveries authored by
its participants – top young talents from all over the continent.
Paperity is the first service of this kind. The most similar
existing website, PubMed Central, aggregates open journals, too, but
is limited to life sciences alone. Another related service, the
Directory of Open Access Journals, does index articles from multiple
periodicals and different disciplines, but does not provide
aggregation, only pure indexing: it shows metadata of articles, but
for fulltext access redirects to external sites. Moreover, both PMC
and DOAJ impose strict technical requirements on participating
journals, which limits the scope of aggregation. Paperity adapts to
whatever technology a given periodical employs.
