[Open-access] Open alternative to crossref / linking to citations re-use on an open access repository?

Fri Mar 23 19:18:20 UTC 2012

Hi Folks,

I'm Tariq Khokhar and work at the World Bank in Washington DC. Here in a
personal(ish) capacity.

My question is roughly: is there a good open alternative to things like:
http://www.crossref.org/

In particular, for this scenario:

1) Institution X has an open access repository with research paper P in it.
2) Someone, S, takes P, either re-uses it or cites it in paper or product D
3) S then publishes or puts online D

Question: How can X (semi) automatically discover D and list it alongside P
on the original open access repository? What would S have to do with D in
order to help this along?

Hope that's clear!
