FAIRsharing – A curated resource on data and metadata standards feat. African records.
Manage episode 379246305 series 3310196
This session is part of a series of live webinars, where we discuss how the persistent identifiers ORCID, ROR, and DOI enable interoperability across scholarly digital services while also ensuring the discoverability of research from and about Africa.
The slides are available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.8406371
Persistent identifiers (PIDs) are unique and enduring labels assigned to digital objects, resources, or entities, such as research datasets, academic papers, books, websites, and other item types. In scholarly records, PIDs can also be assigned to individual researchers (ORCID) and research institutions (ROR). This webinar series aims to facilitate African researchers, librarians, and institutions in the adoption of digital tools and persistent identifiers for a significant increase of African research discoverability, globally and to increase efficiency in scholarly workflows.

About FAIRsharing FAIRsharing is a curated, informative and educational resource on data and metadata standards, inter-related to databases and data policies, across all disciplines. It guides consumers to discover, select and use these resources with confidence, producers to make their resources more discoverable, more widely adopted and cited, and powers third-party tools by providing trustworthy content to promote standards and databases. This presentation will provide an overview of FAIRsharing and how resource developers can get started describing their databases, standards and policies within FAIRsharing. Examples of what you can do with FAIRsharing will focus on the ORCID Registry record as well as records from the countries within Africa. About Allyson Lister
