    Project Academic Knowledge: Using the Microsoft Academic API to evaluate institutional repository impact
    (2020-06-26) Koivisto, Joseph
    Microsoft Academic (MA) is a publicly-accessible commercial discovery interface that supports creative reuse and evaluation of data through the implementation of accessible APIs. This presentation will provide an overview of both MA and its associated APIs, focusing on unique features that provide a competitive advantage over similar platforms. Additionally, this presentation will provide use case demonstrations of using MA-sourced data to evaluate citation data for MD-SOAR records. Technical requirements will be discussed at entry-level detail, allowing non-programmers to understand what is needed to get started using MA APIs.
