This folder contains scripts to merge journal metadat from multiple sources and provide a snapshot for bulk importing into fatcat. Specific bots will probably be needed to do continous updates; that's out of scope for this first import. ## Sources The `./data/fetch.sh` script will fetch mirrored snapshots of all these datasets.

General form here is to build a huge python dict in memory, keyed by the ISSN-L, then write out to disk as JSON. Then the journal-metadata importer takes a subset of fields and inserts to fatcat. Lastly, the elasticsearch transformer takes a subset/combination of ## ISSN-L Munging Unfortunately, there seem to be plenty of legitimate ISSNs that don't end up in the ISSN-L table. On the portal.issn.org public site, these are listed as: "This provisional record has been produced before publication of the resource. The published resource has not yet been checked by the ISSN Network.It is only available to subscribing users." For example: - 2199-3246/2199-3254: Digital Experiences in Mathematics Education Instead of just dropping these entirely, we're currently munging these by putting the electronic or print ISSN in the ISSN-L position. ## Python Helpers/Libraries - ftfy - pycountry Debian: sudo apt install python3-pycountry sudo pip3 install ftfy
