Persistent Identifiers and Research Data

Persistent Identifiers are essential for identifying, citing, and tracking the usage of research data. This poster will examine the unique identifier requirements of research data, and evaluate how existing systems meet these requirements. We hope rethinking the requirements of dataset identifiers will lead to identifier systems that are a better fit for data; that will reduce the institutional and organization cost of maintaining the identification; and will better support data identification, discovery, and preservation. This is the poster image presented at the 2023 ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries. Citations should cite the article in the conference proceedings.
