What is the DOAJ MCP Server?

Connect to the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) to explore millions of open access articles and journals. This server allows researchers to query metadata and publishers to manage their records through natural conversation.

What you can do

Journal Discovery — Search the DOAJ database for journals using Elasticsearch syntax, including title, ISSN, and subject filters.
Article Search — Find specific research papers and articles across thousands of open access publications.
Metadata Retrieval — Fetch complete metadata for specific articles using their unique DOAJ IDs.
Publisher Management — Create, update, or delete article records directly from your AI agent (requires API key).
Bulk Operations — Upload high-volume batches of articles asynchronously for efficient catalog management.
Journal Applications — Submit update requests for existing journals to keep directory information current.

How it works

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I search for journals using specific fields like title or ISSN?

Yes! Use the search_journals tool with Elasticsearch query string syntax. For example, you can query bibjson.title:"Journal of Science" or bibjson.pissn:"1234-5678" to find exact matches.

How do I submit a batch of new articles at once?

You can use the bulk_create_articles tool. It allows you to submit a JSON array of article objects asynchronously. This is ideal for publishers managing high volumes of data.

Is it possible to request updates for an existing journal listing?

Yes, publishers can use the create_application tool to submit an update request for an existing journal by providing the updated metadata and referencing the current journal ID.

How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?

Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.

Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?

Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.

Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?

Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
