NISO Works Toward a Standard for a Persistent Identifier Strategy
NISO posted the following:The Research Data Alliance-United States (RDA-US) and the National Information Standards Organization (NISO) announced today their intent to collaborate in the development of an ANSI/NISO standard for a US national Persistent Identifier (PID) strategy. The Working Group formed to achieve this goal will operate within NISO’s standards development structure. Persistent identifiers, or PIDs, are critical to the infrastructure supporting scholarly communications and open research. PIDs support research discovery and citations, allow users and systems to easily identify authors and institutions and link them to research outputs, and help ensure compliance with a growing number of government and funder mandates advancing open scholarship. For more information, read the press release.
