ARKs

Contact owners and managers

1–30 of 112

Welcome to this forum for discussion of ARKs (Archival Resource Keys) and more general identifier issues, including scheme-agnostic resolvers (e.g., n2t.net), identifier inflections to access different aspects of an object via one identifier, and supporting protocols, metadata, and standards. There is also a French-language ARK discussion forum and a Spanish- and Portuguese-language discussion forum. All three forums are expected to comply with the Archival Resource Key Community Code of Conduct.
