Acknowledgments

Guide The open-access providers, the open-source projects, and the standards resmon is built on.

resmon is built on a broad ecosystem of open scholarly infrastructure and open-source software. The project gratefully acknowledges:

Open-access repository providers

The scholarly sources resmon asks, whose public APIs make automated literature monitoring possible:

  • arXiv — Cornell University / arXiv.org, for the Atom XML API and the decades-long commitment to open preprint distribution in physics, mathematics, computer science, quantitative biology, statistics, electrical engineering, and economics.
  • bioRxiv and medRxiv — openRxiv, for the date-range JSON API serving the life- and health-sciences communities.
  • CORE — The Open University / Jisc, for the aggregated open-access JSON API spanning tens of thousands of repositories worldwide.
  • CrossRef — Crossref, for the DOI-indexed REST API and the “polite pool” that rewards well-behaved clients with priority rate limits.
  • DataCite — DataCite, for the public DOI metadata REST API. Metadata from DataCite.
  • DBLP — Schloss Dagstuhl / University of Trier, for the computer-science bibliography REST API.
  • Dryad — Dryad, for the dataset search API and its ORCID-bearing author records.
  • DOAJ — Directory of Open Access Journals / Infrastructure Services for Open Access C.I.C., for the journal- and article-level JSON API covering open-access journals across disciplines.
  • ERIC — Institute of Education Sciences, U.S. Department of Education, for the public education-research API.
  • EuropePMC — EMBL-EBI on behalf of the Europe PMC Consortium, for the biomedical and life-sciences REST API.
  • GovInfo — U.S. Government Publishing Office, for the GovInfo Search Service and its official bibliographic fields.
  • HAL — CCSD / CNRS, for the Solr-backed multi-disciplinary JSON API.
  • INSPIRE-HEP — CERN and the INSPIRE collaboration, for the curated high-energy-physics literature API.
  • NASA ADS — Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory / NASA Astrophysics Data System, for the Solr-backed astronomy, astrophysics, and planetary-science API.
  • NDL Search — National Diet Library, Japan, for the SRU open-metadata API. Powered by NDL Search API. Metadata provided by the National Diet Library and its contributing databases and institutions.
  • NIST Resource Metadata Management — National Institute of Standards and Technology, for the RMM paper-search API. Data created by NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology).
  • OpenAIRE — the OpenAIRE partnership, for the multi-disciplinary scholarly-graph Search API.
  • OpenAlex — OurResearch, for the free, comprehensive scholarly-works REST API and the mailto-based polite-pool rate tier.
  • Open Library — Internet Archive, for the public work-metadata search API.
  • OSTI.GOV — Office of Scientific and Technical Information, U.S. Department of Energy, for the public research-record API. Courtesy of OSTI.GOV, U.S. Department of Energy.
  • PLOS — Public Library of Science, for the Solr-backed JSON API over the PLOS journal family.
  • PubMed / NCBI E-utilities — U.S. National Library of Medicine / National Center for Biotechnology Information, for the E-utilities suite that underpins biomedical literature retrieval.
  • Semantic Scholar — Allen Institute for AI (AI2), for the cross-disciplinary scholarly-graph REST API.
  • Springer Nature — Springer Nature, for the Meta API covering STM, humanities, and social-sciences content.
  • Zenodo — CERN and OpenAIRE, for the multi-disciplinary research-output records API.

Open-source projects

resmon depends on, and is grateful for, these projects, among many others: Python, FastAPI, Starlette, Uvicorn, Pydantic, httpx, lxml, Beautiful Soup, SQLAlchemy, APScheduler, SQLite and sqlite-vec, NumPy, pypdf, cryptography, keyring, NLTK, tiktoken, pytest, Electron, Node.js, React, React Router, TanStack Query, TypeScript, Vite, Playwright, PDF.js, electron-builder, and python-build-standalone. The interface is set in the Geist, Geist Mono, and Spectral typefaces. Ollama makes it possible to run models on your own computer.

Standards and identifiers

resmon relies on the DOI system administered by the International DOI Foundation, and on the ORCID identifier system. Both underpin how it recognizes the same work and the same person across sources. Retraction notices come from Crossref, which has distributed the Retraction Watch database openly.
