BEING DISCOVERABLE & OBTAINING CREDIT

DOIs, data citation, and researcher IDs

Unique identifiers

DOI: Digital object identifier• Digital Identifier of an Object (not "Identifier of a Digital

Object") • Object = any entity (thing: physical, digital, or abstract)

• Resources, parties, licenses, etc.

• Digital Identifier = network actionable identifier ("click on it and do something”)

Data Citation

Model good practice by

citing others in a standardized

way.

Make it easy for others to

attribute your data directly to you: provide a

citation.

Data citation

Include, AT LEAST:Creator (PublicationYear): Title. Publisher. Identifier

Better:Creator (PublicationYear): Title. Version. Publisher.
