Hi
I would be interested to getting a list of (DOI’s to) all books / monographs arising from our funding council (Dutch Research Council NWO). I tried the following API call:
funders/501100003246/works?filter=type:book
But only got 3 results back. (Ttype:monograph did not give a result a all). Am I doing something wrong or is it just the case that depositing funding information with book metadata is not yet community practice?

Hello Hans,
Thanks for your post.
So the query that you were using is only going to return the book level DOIs and I suspect you are looking for all DOIs against a book, so you might want to try using the “book-chapters” as a type value e.g.
https://0-api-crossref-org.library.alliant.edu/funders/501100003246/works?filter=type:book-chapter
This returns 39 results. If you want to retrieve what titles the DOIs are from, you can add a facet to the end like this:
https://0-api-crossref-org.library.alliant.edu/funders/501100003246/works?filter=type:book-chapter&facet=container-title:*
I hope this helps and if you have any further questions or queries on this or want more specific query URLs then please do reply here.
Paul
