Hi Jonathan, Also I noticed that currently, over 15 publishers, including SpringerOne and Biomed Central, are using the standard cc:licence element in their RSS metadata, to enable Open Access identification at the article level on discovery services, databases and any online service that needs to identify individual OA articles published by any type of journal (Gold or Hybrid). Example: http://www.aidsrestherapy.com/latest/rss http://www.inderscience.com/current_issues/ijds.rss http://journals.iucr.org/a/rss10.xml http://www.nzjforestryscience.com/latest/rss There are already plenty of metadata standards to enable OA identification at the article level (from NISO RP-22-2015, JATS 1.x to the simple cc:license solution) and publishers should be recognised for the efforts that they are making to enable programmatic identification of OA articles. The RSS feeds of some publishers are really very rich. For example: https://peerj.com/articles/index.rss1 What we need now is that more publisher join those efforts and that the discovery and delivery services start to ingest the new elements such as cc:license. The fact that OA identification is still done at the journal level across the supply chain must change. Publishers now are giving the example. The Summon, Primo, etc should start to follow suit.

Hi Jonathan It’s an important question. I understand that the Web of Science team is working on this issue and hopefully they will at some point in the future be able to identify Gold papers in hybrid journals. WoS papers in open access only journals are easily identified because they recently added an open access filter (bottom left). I don’t know of any way to identify Gold hybrid papers and suspect we are not there yet until publishers provide this as a standard metadata item. I hope I’m wrong and that someone out there has cracked this?

Please forgive the naivety of this question, but: -- Is there a way to identify individual articles as having been published under a Gold OA route with an APC fee paid? I know there are tools to identify journal titles as either pure Gold or hybrid type (publisher supports Green with Gold option if APC paid), but what about an individual output? I’ve been asked this question to try to quantify existing researcher Gold OA publishing behaviour that may have happened “below the radar”, i.e. where an APC cost has been paid but possibly author self-funded (etc) without the APC charge becoming visible in an institutional finance system. At present we don’t have an OA - IR yet in place so there’s currently no local opportunity to capture this activity; later this year we’ll have the full IR capacity and workflow. Rather than have to survey our researchers individually, we’d like to independently assess any Gold OA activity they may have made. I don’t see in citation and full-text journal databases the option of a field or filter to find an article as published under Gold OA. Thanks for any advice you can offer.
