Dataset Identification and Citation
The document discusses dataset identification and citation using DataCite and EZID. It provides an introduction to DataCite, which helps researchers find, access, and reuse data, and EZID, which allows for easy creation and management of DataCite DOIs and other identifiers. The document outlines the DataCite metadata schema, describes functionality available through EZID, and recommends next steps for using these services.

Editor's Notes
- #2 Thank you for this opportunity to speak with you today about Dataset Identification & Citation.
- #4 My library:Serving the 10 UC campuses226,000 students 134,000 faculty and staffWorking collaborativelylibrariesdata centersmuseums, archivesfaculty and researchersCDL has historically provided strategic, integrated technical and program services in a broad portfolio, including:Groundbreaking licensing agreementsUnion bibliographic servicesData curation & preservation toolsOpen access publishing servicesCDL: http://www.cdlib.org/
- #5 My group:The UC Curation Center is creative partnership between the CDL, the ten UC campuses, and peer institutions in the community.An evolving community of shared concern and practice; bringing together diverse experience, expertise, and resources; providing robust curation solutions.
- #6 Let’s start out by taking a look at some common challenges in data-intensive research today.
- #7 Researchers doing data-intensive research and writing. Want to refer to the dataset right now even though they haven't yet found a permanent "home" for the data. If they get a persistent identifier for that dataset now, they will have reference that can be used in the paper. When the papers are published and the data is moved, the researcher simply updates the target URL, and the reference will still work.
- #8 RESEARCH TEAMS, work ACROSS REGIONS OR COUNTRIES where a data is hosted REMOTELY. Let’s assume the database is stored on someone’s departmental web server, but the server is getting old, soon to be replaced. The team can get an identifier now +circulate it to colleagues + the entire data federation. When the infrastructure is replaced, the team updates the location details so that references to the database continues to work perfectly.
- #9 Researchers who have published extensively and who want to be able to move around in their career, also may want to take their data with them.They can get identifiers for the work AND the datasets that go with it. With persistent identifiers, the references are never broken, because the researcher can keep the target URLs and other metadata up to date even as she moves.
- #10 As the NSF and other funders issue requirements for data management plans, scientists have to be able to answer basic questions like, How will you name and organize the data files? Persistent identifiers provide a ready answer to this requirement.
- #11 To address this challenge, DataCite was formed in 2009 by 10 Libraries and Research Centers.
- #12 The number has now grown to 15. In addition there are 3 associate members, including the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information, so there is a presence in Asia.Mission: “"Helping you find, access, and reuse data"Advocacy, citationTo support citation, access and finding, you need…Metadata

- #15 Now that we’ve discussed identifiers, how do you get them? How do you keep them up to date?EZIDA service to make and manage actionable idsCan manage identifiers under different schemes:ARKs, DOIs, and more to comeUser and programming interfacesPartnering for replication
- #16 How to use the UI to test EZIDARKs and DOIsARKsFlexibleCase-sensitiveSpecial features support granularityCan be deletedInexpensiveDOIsEstablished brand in publishingIndexed by major A&I citation databases DataCite policies applyCannot be deletedMore costlyDOIs should be assigned to objects that are under good long-term management, and where there is an intention is to make the object persistently available.DOIs must be registered exclusively with metadata that is available to public view.Can DOIs and ARKs work together?Yes. For example, researchers may choose to use ARKs for unpublished materials associated with an object that has been registered with a DOI. These two identifier schemes can work well together, and EZID offers them both, along with policy support consistent across both schemes.
- #17 Let’s take a look at the UI now. I would give you a live demo, but I’m afraid that it might have some difficulties traveling over SKYPE. I’ve made some key captures here, and I think it will work fairly well for us.So, thisis our User Interface. EZID also has a machine-to-machine interface, an API, and a link to the documentation is here.If you’d like to try EZID, simply click on the help tab [CLICK] here.

- #20 On the Help screen, you have the choice of creating a test ARK or DOI.[CLICK] Click the Create button
- #21 EZID creates the identifier and sends you to the MANAGE tab where you have the opportunity to enter a target URL and other metadata as we’ve seen earlier.
- #22 EZID creates the identifier and sends you to the MANAGE tab where you have the opportunity to enter a target URL and other metadata as we discussed earlier. The EZID UI allows the entry of DataCite’s required set, and you can submit a full record using the API.
- #23 So here is what this means. Here is an example of a data set deposited with one of our clients, Dryad.Dryad is an international repository of data underlying peer-reviewed articles in the basic and applied biosciences.
- #25 Dublin Core application profile available for the DataCite Metadata Schema; we’ll keep it up to date and in-sync. From the DCMI: “A DCAP is designed to promote interoperability within the constraints of the Dublin Core model and to encourage harmonization of usage and convergence on "emerging semantics" around its edges.”Content Service exposes our metadata stored in the DataCite Metadata Store (MDS) using multiple formats Alpha version: The service can be accessed at http://data.datacite.orgEZID: UI redesignActivity reportingBrowse & searchEnhanced persistence supportAutomated link checkingTombstone pages (a web page returned for a resource no longer found at its target location of record.
