Sherpa Romeo Widget
Use Sherpa Romeo to find a summary of permissions that are normally given as part of each publisher's copyright transfer agreement.
The widget for this service was developed using the Romeo API and is currently at version Number 0.912.
Release notes
Widgets integrates with the Romeo API and provides a similar search interface to that found on the Sherpa Romeo Website.
Known bugs / issues
A few responses that need to be dealt with - such as “unique zetoc”. Many publishers have no data returned and somtimes they have the introductory paragraph but no actual data. This is what comes from the feed rather than a fault in the widget. As the API is currently in development it is likely that the nature of the widget and its relationship with the API will change over the next few months.
Accessing the widget directly provides an xml error. This was needed because the netvibes uwa did not work without it.
Future Work
Expand more on the introductory screen. Provide breadcrumb navigation.
