Additional Information

In order to give the recommendations generated from these workshops a place for review and support, we are standing up an RDA working group that will collaborate with other interest groups and working groups already established in RDA with interest in DOIs, DOI Collections, repositories creating DOI collections, journals supporting citing DOI Collections, and Credit for the elements of a DOI Collection. You are welcome to participate in these workshops and coordinate the development and review of the recommendations.

In addition to the RDA review process for recommendations, we will also ask members of Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) for review and comment. Especially: COPDESS Cluster, Data Stewardship Committee, Discovery, Research Object Citation, and Sustainable Data Management.
