Generating a publication URL
FAQ: I have the publication file to enter into Thoth but no publication URL. How can I generate a publication URL?
If you are a Thoth Plus publisher, Thoth Hosting is included as free file hosting service, which will allow you to generate publication URLs.
If you are not a Thoth Plus publisher and you do not have a publication URL yet upon entering metadata into Thoth you can freely generate one via one of the following two options. Once your metadata and book/chapter is live on a third-party hosting platform additional publication URLs can be added within Thoth.
Dropbox
You can upload the publication file to Dropbox, resulting in a unique publication URL which can be entered into the 'Publication URL' field within Thoth which can be further disseminated to third-parties.
Zenodo
You can upload the publication file to Zenodo, resulting in a unique publication URL which can be entered as the 'Publication URL' within Thoth which can be further disseminated to third-parties. Zenodo also generates a DOI for all of its records. An example of how another OA book publisher works with Zenodo can be found here.
