PID guides from which ARK is missing from PIDapalooza talkPIDapalooza: How to get heritage organisations to start using PIDs: a tale of two countries, about two national PID projects: o Next step: write a guide to help with choosing persistent identifiers (until October 2021) o Contact person: Frances Madden (British Library), Research Identifiers Lead & overseeing the BL's contribution to the FREYA project
o they wrote documentation & a guide for helping institutions choose a PID o ARK is not among the options o Contact person: Remco van Veenendaal (National Archives of the Netherlands), Project Manager Persistent Identifier project It might be a good idea for the Outreach group to get involved and contact the people involved in the 2 projects, so that ARK gets included in the list of possible options for PID. If people don’t hear about it, they’re never going to choose it. Furthermore, they also mentioned a European project that also had as a delivery a guide for choosing PIDs: FREYA Project (Connected Open Identifiers for Discovery, Access and Use of Research Resources) - Guides to Choosing Persistent Identifiers - Version 3 (July 2020), where, once again, ARK is not among the options. Even though the project seems to be finished, someone from the Outreach group could still inquire whether a new version of the guide is possible and try to include ARK in the list. | |||
Needed: a group of "editors" to solicit, refine, enter text for, and (sometimes) author short pieces and announcements for the ARKA blog. Target frequency TBD – six times a year? | |||
