Data Citation & Digital Object Identifiers DOIs

2 Digital Object Identifiers 101 Persistent identifier Identifies intellectual property in the digital environment Global - journals, data, software... For citation -> metadata requirements - Styles doi: /PANGAEA (not Australia) doi: /PANGAEA /13/50BBFCFE08A12

3 Some DOIs words “Minting” = creating the DOI and attaching it to a record is free i.e. vow to persistently love, care for and maintain your DOIs & landing pages one minter per institution (mostly) = clicking a DOI --> the metadata record (not the data) DOIs resolve to a landing page = Metadata record ~ Query for large datasets query must be persistent Minting Resolving Landing page

4 Why DOIs Easy and persistent access to online research data Disambiguation and accuracy for authors, datasets Enhanced discovery, retrieval and management of data to enable data reuse and verification of research results Support for automated tracking of data outputs Indexing services - Thomson Reuters Data Citation Index Altmetrics - views, downloads and 'likes’
