isParatext property

  1. @JsonKey(name: 'is_paratext')
bool? isParatext
getter/setter pair

True if we think this work is paratext. In our context, paratext is stuff that's in scholarly venue (like a journal) but is about the venue rather than a scholarly work properly speaking. Some examples and nonexamples:

  • yep it's paratext: front cover, back cover, table of contents, editorial board listing, issue information, masthead.
  • no, not paratext: research paper, dataset, letters to the editor, figures Turns out there is a lot of paratext in registries like Crossref. That's not a bad thing... but we've found that it's good to have a way to filter it out. We determine is_paratext algorithmically using title heuristics.

Implementation

@JsonKey(name: 'is_paratext')
bool? isParatext;
