ROAR Widget
The Registry of Open Access Repositories (ROAR)“promotes open access to the research literature pre- and post-peer-review through author self-archiving in institutional eprint archives. Open access to research maximises research access and thereby also research impact, making research more productive and effective. ”.
Release notes
The widget for this service was developed by developing a bespoke API for the service on rwidgets.co.uk and then interacting with that widget. ROAR provides a CSV download of its data and this is collected on a daily basis by the API. The widget searches Keywords, Country, Software and Content Type.
Known bugs / issues
General operational issues and user friendliness.
Future Work
Better Output. Better User interface.
