9 July 2013; Presented by Joan Starr and Carly Strasser. Description: EZID makes it simple for researchers and others to obtain and manage long-term identifiers (DOIs and ARKs) for their digital content. EZID is a great tool for data management, and researchers can build EZID and identifiers into their data management plans. In this free summer webinar, we cover: The advantages of EZID and identifiers for data management; How to configure the DMPTool to point to your library's EZID services; How to use the DMPTool as a ready source of contact information for your outreach
Beyond Boundaries: Leveraging No-Code Solutions for Industry Innovation

8. What is an identifier?
What you see: alphanumeric string (never changes)
Associated with: location of object (such as a URL)
Optional: who, what, when, etc (i.e. metadata)

9. Identifier example
string: doi:10.9999/FK40K2GTV
html version: http://dx.doi.org/10.9999/FK40K2GTV
location: http://www.bologna.edu/biology/xfg/123.xls
metadata
creator: Dr. Felix Kottor
title: Data for chromosomal study of catfish (Ictalurus
punctatus)
publisher: University of Bologna
date: 8/31/2012
10. Identifier example
string: doi:10.9999/FK40K2GTV
html version: http://dx.doi.org/10.9999/FK40K2GTV
location: http://www.state.edu/ecology/783sdr/123.xls
metadata
creator: Dr. Felix Kottor
title: Data for chromosomal study of catfish (Ictalurus
punctatus)
publisher: Dryad Data Repository
date: 10/01/2013
12. Allow readers to find data products
Get credit for data and publications
Promote reproducibility
Better measure of research impact
Example:
Sidlauskas, B. 2007. Data from: Testing for unequal rates of
morphological diversification in the absence of a detailed
phylogeny: a case study from characiform fishes. Dryad Digital
Repository. doi:10.5061/dryad.20
Why Identifiers are Important
15. • DataCite DOIs for data, linking to
scholarly research
• Credit to data producers and data
publishers
• Exposure and research metrics for
datasets
(Web of Knowledge, Google)
Primary Functions
1. Create identifiers
2. Manage identifiers (and metadata) over time
3. Resolve identifiers
EZID
Long term identifiers made easy

17. DataCite Services
1. DOIs for data!
2. Local service & support
3. Usage stats
4. Citation formatter
5. Content negotiation
6. Metadata search
7. OAI provider
8. DataCite-to-ORCID hookup*

25. EZID: DOIs & ARKs
DOIs ARKs
Strict metadata requirements Flexible metadata guidelines
From the scholarly communication
community
From the archives and museums
community
Established “brand name” Option-rich, open source
Use case: Data Citation Use case: Data Documentation
28. DOIs in data management plans
What it looks like: Sample plan language:
Aguilée R, Lambert A, Claessen D (2011)
Data from: Ecological speciation in dynamic
landscapes. Journal of Evolutionary
Biology doi:10.5061/dryad.74024
Publication of data shall occur during the project, if
appropriate, or at the end of the project, consistent
with normal scientific practices.
[Team] follows a standardized data product citation
including DOI, that indicates the version and how to
obtain a copy of that product.
Why it’s important:
OSTP mandate to: identify and provide
“appropriate attribution to scientific
data sets”
Researcher benefits: Credit, increased
citations, increased productivity
Data Citation
29. ARKs in data management plans
What it looks like:
At top-level directory/folder:
Project Title
Unique Identifier
Date (yyyy or yyyy.mm.dd)
At sub-directories:
optional identifiers at granular levels
Sample plan language:
[Team] follows the recommended best
practice for good data management by
assigning unique identifiers (ARKs) to
the data as part of the data
documentation.
Why it’s important:
Researcher benefits:
Data documentation helps you keep
track of (and remember) aspects of
your data throughout the research
project.
Data Documentation
30. Identifiers for data management
Identifiers + data=
• Easy to access,
• Easy to re-use
• Easy to verify
39. Take-aways: Identifiers & EZID
• Important
• Data citation + data documentation
• If your campus is an EZID client:
– Add customization to the DMPTool and go!
• If you aren’t yet an EZID client:
– Try out EZID for free at http://n2t.net/ezid.
40. Using the DMP Tool for Outreach
1. Promote data management and help with
grant applications.
2. Use the DMPTool to
– Showcase your services
– Find names for outreach
DOIs are one kind of persistent identifier.But what is an identifier?An identifier is an alphanumeric string assigned to an object, and if that assignment is managed with some metadata and the object is made available over time, the identifier becomes a VERY reliable way of keeping track of that object.
Let’s take a look at one.So you can see that with just the identifier and a simple set of metadata, you get:Location for VERIFICATIONEXPOSURE & CITATION TRACKING(this is not an actual DOI, nor an actual study)
And here’s that same DOI some time later.THE STRING NEVER CHANGES. This means it can be cited, tracked and associated with all kinds of metadata. More on that in a minute.
DATA CITATION1. Get full credit for your research2. Ensure transparency & accountability3. Get more citations & track the impact of your work4. Promote scientific re-use of your work
How can EZID be in the business of issuing DataCite DOIs? California Digital Library was one of the founding members.DataCite was indeed formed in 2009 by 10 Libraries and Research Centers with a Mission: “"Helping you find, access, and reuse data“The number has now grown to 17. In addition there are 5 associate members, including the Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information, the National Research Council of Thailand and Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI), so there is a presence in Asia.DATACITE’s primary methodology for achieving this mission: issuing DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers) for datasets.

Otherwise, s/he can only see the plans that have been published with institutional visibility (as opposed to public or no visibility). Delivery early 2014
