Useful Python packages for scholarly communication research

Here's a few useful Python packages I've found so far that can help with various aspects of scholcomm research. I make no claim as to the quality of these packages.

Multi-purpose

  • pyOpenSci pyApiToolkit: 'Python 3 scripts to access, create, distribute and publish open research data or data about open science works.' Includes DOAJ, oaDOI (Unpaywall), ORCID, Zotero and Wikidata API wrappers.

Webpages as data

  • BeautifulSoup: Scrape webpages (including journal webpages, where permitted by journal T&Cs) using BeautifulSoup. I've used this to scrape acknowledgements and conflict of interest data from clinical trials published in journals.

Publication data

  • crossrefapi: Access the Crossref API for data on journal articles, journals, funding info, and more.

Amazon Book to public library search

Each of the sections below allow you to click on a bookmark/favorite to quickly search your local public library for a book you are looking at on Amazon. The goal is to save money (and bookshelf clutter :)) so you can check out a book (see what I did there?) instead of buying it first.

##Quick Guide

Here's how you use these. It's probably going to be easiest to copy the bookmarklet code by clicking "Raw":
