Code and data used in
N. Jahn, M. Tullney. A study of institutional spending on open access publication fees in Germany. PeerJ, 4, e2323.https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.2323
This article is written in R Markdown. This repository contains the datasets used as well as all data gathering methods and analytical steps involved. Also bibliography and latex styles are shared.
Before generating the paper, make sure you have all R packages installed.
To replicate the analytical steps including tables and figures, execute the article file via the command line interface:
Rscript -e "rmarkdown::render('article.Rmd')"
The script R/aggregation.r contains the source code used for enriching the original Open APC data.
The helper function R/cr_parse was used to parse the Crossref XML obtained with the great rcrossref client.
data/cost_data_uk/README.md tracks how we gathered the values for Table 2. Again, this notebook is written in R Markdown (data/cost_data_uk/README.Rmd)
