Editor's Notes
- #2 The IDF has appointed a number of registration agencies, and several of them assign DOIs to scholarly literature. For example, in Asia, Arity, CNKI, and ISTIC assign DOIs to scholarly articles written in Chinese. In Europe, mEDRA assigns DOIs to Italian language articles. DataCite works with a different community—institutions. It is quite decentralized, and authorizes member institutions to assign DOIs to data sets and other content. Bowker was a registration for a long time, but they decided not to be a registration agency any longer. In a completely different space, Movie Labs assigns DOIs to films. They call these Entertainment Industry Digital Registry? (EIDR)
