Join us for tomorrow’s THOR webinar ‘Overview of PID systems’, featuring Jonathan Clark from the International DOI Foundation.

 

The webinar will offer an introduction to persistent identifiers, providing you with a clear understanding of what persistent identifiers are, why they're important and how trustworthy they are. We will also discuss how you can determine the most appropriate identifier for your needs. The webinar will be especially interesting if you are working with digital archives and digital collections. (Note that the content will not be deeply technical.)

•             What are persistent identifiers?

•             The case for PIDs – knowing what’s what and who’s who

•             The data architecture of PIDs

•             What is social infrastructure and why is it important?

•             Review of current identifier systems

•             How to choose a PID System
