First publication from CiVers!

How can we reliably cite resources of web-based research databases in archaeology and the humanities?

In our new article, we present the CiVers approach: creating versioned, citable web resources using Persistent Identifiers (PIDs).

Hello Mastodon!
We’re CiVers Citation of Versioned Web Pages by Persistent Identifier

Web pages change. Links rot. Academic references break. We’re fixing that.

CiVers develops software and methodologies to make web content reliably citable with PIDs and versioning

How can persistent identifiers help preserve cultural heritage? With support from DataCite’s Global Access Fund, Eko-Konnect launched a project to digitize Nigerian museum artifacts using #IGSN IDs. Read more on our blog: https://doi.org/10.5438/N8A9-VP93

Scaling for impact! The National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) is transforming global access to Japanese research, registering over 20M #DOIs with DataCite & counting. A role model for large-scale metadata excellence & global discoverability. Read more on our blog: https://doi.org/10.5438/44ew-f262

For the publication metadata nerds: I tried to create clarity (ahum) by visualising the generation of various metadata and their flow through the scholarly publishing system. The links goes to the online version that is fully animated, as well as additional versions. Wonder if you think this is useful.

The 2nd NFDI Metadata Workshop, a workshop on metadata standards for research data management, starts today at @tibhannover. In the afternoon, our colleague @yalahowy will present on why PIDs matter in the research data lifecycle and how the research community can unlock PIDs' full potential.
The slides will be published afterwards.

Today the @PIDNetworkDE project is organising a hybrid workshop on PIDs for academic events.

The slides are already available on the event's website: https://events.hifis.net/event/2232/

We wish the colleagues and all participants an valuable event!

Wir arbeiten daran, die #PID-Unterstützung in Open Journal Systems (#OJS) zu verbessern. Unsere ROR-Integration hat es nun in den Core geschafft, steht also in der nächsten OJS-Version automatisch allen zur Verfügung.

Der Release Candidate 2 wurde nun vom @PublicKnowledgeProject für Tests veröffentlicht. Nun gilt es, letzte Fehler zu finden!

Die 1. Session (1-3pm) über Biodiversity Data und AI, die 2. Session (4-5.30 pm) über Biodiversity Data und Persistent Identifiers...

zum Glück ist es hybrid, mal sehen, ob ich mich noch registrieren kann!
