Optional Includes


?include=journal

Adding this include to your request will cause the response to include information about the journal that the DOI is located within.  This includes the name of the journal, ISSN, SJR Value, Cover Image URL, BrowZine Enabled Status and the Link to the Journal (more details below including example response)

LibKey Article DOI or PMID Lookup Response:

The LibKey Article DOI Lookup endpoint responds with a JSON object if the article is found in the LibKey system at all.  If it is found, this indicates that LibKey recognizes this article DOI or PMID.  The accompanying metadata then will indicate if it is "availableThroughBrowZine" for the given library.  If it is, additional metadata about the article, including the browzineWebLink is provided.   The structure of the response overall is described in the following tables.

Response Object:

Property

Type

Description

data

Object

An Article Result object is returned if the DOI or PMID is recognized by the Lookup Endpoint


Article Result:

An article result represents an article that the LibKey system is aware of.  Responses from the "DOI/PMID lookup" endpoint then describe articles that have DOI/PMID's that LibKey is aware of but are not in the specified BrowZine Library (:library_id) as well as articles that are within that library.  A response indicates whether the article referenced by a DOI/PMID is available at the specified library by setting the article result's "availableThroughBrowZine" property to true when the article is available at the library, and false when it is not.
