Crossref Works Dump - August 2019

An effort by eLife Sciences to make citation data more accessible.http://elifesciences.org/This dump provides the raw Crossref works JSON responses as a bulk dump, downloaded in August 2019.It was created by retrieving the works from Crossref API http://api.crossref.org/works (using a 1000 rows per page and a cursor).The source code that produced the file can be found here:https://github.com/elifesciences/datacapsule-crossrefThe output is a 49 GB zip file (using LZMA encryption) contains all of the Crossref raw response. In this case some manuscripts received updates during the download process and therefore will appear twice.To uncompress the file you will need a tool that can handle LZMA (Python 3's zipfile can for example, so can 7zip).The aforementioned project (datacapsule-crossref) also includes code that extracts information from JSON responses included in the zip.
