Summary[edit]

Open Access Repositories like journal websites offer free accessible APIs like OAI-PMH to get access to the bibliographical metadata. In this talk I will present a lightweight python script (as a jupyter notebook) available under gitlab.com/LibrErli1/parse_ojs_oai_2_wikidata. This script allows the scraping of any OAI2 conform site and extract all the necessary bibliographic values in a serialized json-file for a wikidata ingest. This json-output will be used for further processing in OpenRefine (e.g. linking and disambiguate authors or main subjects with Wikidata) and to prepare the upload to Wikidata.
