• Status
• Looking forward
• Getting involved

Background
• Item-level linking became part of our vocabulary a decade ago as librarians worked to link users from the point of discovery to the content that was discovered.
• OpenURL and link resolvers provide a scalable solution to item level linking.
• Things don’t always work as well as they should……this is the subject of a 2008 study led by Adam
Chandler investigating issues with his institution’s link resolver.

Summary of possible problems:Current focus for iota
• Structure -- Bad OpenURL
• Completeness -- Data elements missing
• Accuracy -- Data elements wrong
![Page 13: Holdings Information in Electronic Content Access: NISO’s IOTA Working Group](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56812a8a550346895d8e2db7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
IOTA Working Group
• Improving OpenURL Through Analytics (iota)• Created in 2010• Basic Assumptions:
– Results are achieved through an analytical investigation of how OpenURL links work.
– Practical: Address the links generated by the OpenURL standard, not the standard itself.
– Selective changes to OpenURLs will lead to significant improvement in linking success rate.
• Motto: "small changes. big improvements"
![Page 14: Holdings Information in Electronic Content Access: NISO’s IOTA Working Group](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56812a8a550346895d8e2db7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Desired Outcomes
• Develop community-recognized index for measuring the quality of OpenURL links generated by content providers.
• Produce qualitative reports that will help OpenURL providers quickly compare their OpenURL quality to that of their peers.
• Method:– fair;
– transparent;
– scalable across all OpenURLs and their providers.

Focus
1. Core elements:– Contained in IOTA's OpenURL reporting system;– 9 million OpenURLs from libraries and providers.
2. Scoring system based on assumption:– Correlation exists between
• # of core elements ("OpenURL completeness") & • ability of OpenURLs to link to specific content.
3. Weighting assigned to core elements:– Based on relative importance
• spage vs atitle• issn vs jtitle• doi/pmid vs date, etc.
![Page 16: Holdings Information in Electronic Content Access: NISO’s IOTA Working Group](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56812a8a550346895d8e2db7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Work in Progress
• Element weighting still in progress:– E.g., importance of identifiers (doi, pmid) vs bibliographic data
(issn, volume, spage).
• Currently, IOTA focuses on OpenURLs from citation sources only. OpenURL quality is also influenced by:– knowledge base,– resolver,– full-text provider (target).
• High "completeness" score of OpenURLs not always indicative of "success" in linking to full texts– Combination of multiple indexes along linking nodes may
provide more complete picture.

of data – publicly available• Work underway on creating a
completeness index• Exploring options with KBART and other
groups for looking at other aspects of OpenURL quality
