The dataset contains general data (research field, activity status, language, authors’ institutional affiliation), data on ways that scholarly blogs are already being integrated into digital research and information infrastructure (DNB entry, ISSN, DOI, citation proposal, platform used), and data on the efforts of scholarly bloggers that make their blogs accessible and reusable (blog archive, blogroll, Creative Commons, RSS/Atom feed, comments).
