## 2024-10-03

- I had an idea to get abstracts from OpenAlex
  - For [copyright reasons they don't include plain abstracts](https://docs.openalex.org/api-entities/works/work-object#abstract_inverted_index), but the [pyalex](https://github.com/J535D165/pyalex) library can convert them on the fly

- I filtered for journal articles that were Creative Commons and missing abstracts:

```console
$ csvcut -c 'id,dc.title[en_US],dcterms.abstract[en_US],cg.identifier.doi[en_US],dcterms.type[en_US],dcterms.language[en_US],dcterms.license[en_US]' ~/Downloads/2024-09-30-cgspace.csv | csvgrep -c 'dcterms.type[en_US]' -r '^Journal Article$' | csvgrep -c 'cg.identifier.doi[en_US]' -r '^.+$' | csvgrep -c 'dcterms.license[en_US]' -r '^CC-' | csvgrep -c 'dcterms.abstract[en_US]' -r '^$' | csvgrep -c 'dcterms.language[en_US]' -r '^en$' | grep -v "||" | grep -v -- '-ND' | grep -v -E 'https://doi.org/10.(2499|4160|17528)/' > /tmp/missing-abstracts.csv
```

- Then wrote a script to get them from OpenAlex
  - After inspecting and cleaning a few dozen up in OpenRefine (removing "Keywords:" and copyright, and HTML entities, etc) I managed to get about 440
