CrossRef Text and Data Mining Services

Abstract

The discipline of text and data mining (TDM) is growing in visibility in the scholarly research community. In May 2014, CrossRef launched CrossRef Text and Data Mining Services, which aims to alleviate the issues that text mining researchers encounter when trying to collect the corpus of content that they want to mine from the different publishers who have produced it. This article will discuss what the CrossRef service does, the problem that it is trying to solve and the current status of the rollout of the service across CrossRef member publishers.
