What Library holds
In plain wordsTechnical detail
| Stored in | Details | Why | Kept for | Schedule row |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| library_shelves | member_id, name, ref_kind, ref_pub, style | The lists of sources you make, one for a paper or a project, and the citation style you picked for each. | Kept until you delete the list or your account. | Not listed yet |
| library_sources | member_id, shelf_id, ident, csl, note, check_state, check_notes, checked_at | The sources on your lists: what you typed or what Crossref and Open Library sent about a work, your private notes, and what the last retraction check found. | Kept until you remove the source, delete the list or delete your account. | Not listed yet |
| library_notebooks | member_id, title, body, share_slug | Your data notebooks: the code, notes and printed text of each cell, up to 200 KB each. Your data files are never kept. Anyone with a notebook's link can read it while you share it. | Kept until you delete the notebook or your account. | Not listed yet |
| library_attachments | member_id, notebook_id, ref_pub, ref_title | Which of your papers a notebook is attached to, with the paper's title as you had it when you attached it. | Kept until you detach the notebook, delete it or delete your account. | Not listed yet |
| library_dois | member_id, kind, ref_pub, zenodo_id, doi, record_url, title | The permanent DOIs you asked Zenodo for: the title, the DOI and the address of the record. The record at Zenodo is public. | Kept after you delete your account, because the record at Zenodo is permanent and cannot be taken back through this site. | Not listed yet |
| library_cache | key, csl, notes | What Crossref and Open Library said about a published work, kept so the same lookup is not repeated. It holds the names of the work's authors as published, and nothing about the member who asked. | Deleted 120 days after it was fetched. | Not listed yet |
