Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Persistent identifiers (PIDs) play a crucial role in ensuring the long-term accessibility, discoverability, and citation of research data. As the volume and diversity of research data repositories continue to grow, the discussion around a standardized PID for Research Data Repositories (RDRs) continues. This paper provides an overview of specific examples of PIDs for RDRs, outlining their characteristics followed by a discussion of what a PID for RDRs should be referencing.
