Buenos Dias Antonio
Some DSpace repositories, such as my own, Edinburgh DataShare, create DataCite DOIs, Digital Object Identifiers, alongside our handles. DataCite is headquartered at the British Library, so they might not be constrained by that embargo. DataCite is a great organisation and we find our researchers are very keen to get the DOI for their data.
The only potential problem for you I think is whether DSpace can run without creating the handles – I have a feeling when we added the minting of DOIs, the sysadmin said DSpace required us to continue generating handles. But that was a few years ago, so you would need to investigate whether that is still the case.
Kind regards,
Pauline

Hi Antonio (and Pauline)
DOIs (issued by Datacite or CrossRef) are always an alternative for Persistant URLs (PURLs) inteads of CNRI´s Handles, except for the price. The figures are (correct me if I´m wrong , ) CrossRef DOIs-> 250$ annual membreship + 1$ per identifier and Datacite--> 2.000€ annual fee+ variable fee depending use of services, see https://blog.datacite.org/the-new-datacite-membership-and-fees-model/) For a repository having to issue thousands of identifiers (culture heritage objects tends to multiply ) the figures are HIGH¡¡¡
Dspace can not run (at this moment) without assigning handles
(not only the objects but the collections and communities have
handles) but that do not imply to convert the handles into PURLs,
registering them into a service as CNRI (50$ annual fee, no
individual fee per item, quite cheap service). Interestingly
enough, some institutions have avoided issuing handles many
years (read the details in
https://www.arvo.es/dspace/uso-de-identificadores-persistentes/) .
Antonio, your question remains...
how would create good permanent links with
a handle? At the moment, the links contain a default prefix
(handle/123456789) plus a local identifier, e.g. handle/123456789/16.
a not very "academic" solution....
- Choose a stable Base URL for your repository --> a
Public institution domain is always a good start, since the do
not change domain names very often. repositorio.ohc.cu
could serve, the name of your institution has not changed since
1938¡¡¡ Keep in mind that IF that web address change, the
URLs pointing to your objects will change, and that wil become
a big problem. As long as that base URL is maintained, you
have build a pseudo "persistence" of your links
- You can also change 123456789 to any value, even a text
would serve, it is not so important, but once choosed, do not
change.
And voilá , you will have "pseudo"-PURL system, and your objects will be referenced with (example) repositorio.ohc.cu/handle/habana/16
Best luck with your repository.
