Handling different forms of copyright in NLM DTD 2.3

[amit]

In communication with Rich, we have found out that there are certain objects in the existing PLoS corpus with different copyrights (WHO for example). Our assumption going in with Topaz has been that all objects will be CC and this potentially needs to be revisited. Odds are high that we will not be able to do this for launch in which case we need to be careful ingesting the PLoS corpus to check copyright statements. Rich is ok with this approach as it probably affects very few papers.

note that when an article is served out over as RSS feed with the new feeds, any rights info in the existing doc is passed through. if rights == null a CC SA-BY 3.0 is used by default.

This has actually been half done with r3172. To complete this we will need three set of changes:

• Fixes in Topaz to avoid cascade deletes in certain cases
• PLoS to migrate to NLM DTD 2.3 which allows a precise specification of license.
• Changes to the publishing application to make use of the above information.

Topaz has fixed cascade deletes. Fixes are needed in Ambra to close this.

NLM DTD 2.3 has been added to the entity resolver cache. viewnlm-2.xsl has been updated to handle the new copyright:

<!-- Output the copyright statement differently with v2.3 of the dtd -->
<p>
<xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$dtd-version &lt; 2.3">
  <xsl:choose>
    <!-- Modified to output the word "copyright" for the header if the expression
    "Open-Access License" appears anywhere in the copyright-statement. -->
    <xsl:when test="copyright-statement[contains(., 'Attribution') 
      or contains(.,'Open-Access License')]">
      <strong>Copyright:</strong><xsl:text>  &#169; </xsl:text>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="copyright-year" /><xsl:text> </xsl:text>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="copyright-statement" />
    </xsl:when>
    <xsl:otherwise>
      <xsl:apply-templates select="copyright-statement" />
    </xsl:otherwise>
  </xsl:choose>			
</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>
  <xsl:choose>
    <xsl:when test="permissions/license/@license-type='open-access'">
      <xsl:apply-templates select="permissions/copyright-statement"/><xsl:text> </xsl:text>
    </xsl:when>
  </xsl:choose>
  <xsl:apply-templates select="permissions/license/p/node()"/>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</p>
