What Kotahi publishes
Awaiting review. Converted from the retired kotahi.community documentation and not yet checked against a current Kotahi release.
Kotahi is highly configurable and can publish a wide variety of research outputs. Here are some of the main options:
Types of content
Section titled “Types of content”- Evaluations - Review content and decision summaries from the peer review process. This could include full verbatim reviews or edited excerpts.
- Data - Datasets, metadata, code, multimedia, and other supplementary files.
- Manuscripts - Preprints, journal articles, conference papers, micropublications, and other scholarly documents.
Publishing destinations
Section titled “Publishing destinations”- Your own public website - Kotahi can build and host the site your readers see, and it is customisable to fit your needs. (Kotahi calls this the CMS.)
- External endpoints - Kotahi can publish to any external endpoint or system provided it can receive the data. This includes institutional repositories, preprint servers, journals, archives, social media, and more.
- Multiple targets - Content can be published to your own public website, to external endpoints, or to both at once.
Configuration Options
Section titled “Configuration Options”Kotahi allows flexible configuration of publishing in various ways:
- publish any combination of evaluations, data, and manuscripts or none at all
- publish to single or multiple endpoints
- customise metadata, identifiers, licenses, formatting, layouts, and more
In summary, Kotahi enables publishing virtually any scholarly content anywhere through a highly configurable system.
