🖼️ Vom Green OA bis zur nationalen Roadmap: Wie PIDs #OpenScience stärken

💻 Auf dem Tool-Marktplatz wird das Konzept des PID Monitors und die erfassten PID-Anwendungsszenarien der #OpenAccess-Gemeinde vorgestellt.

Kommt vorbei. Wir freuen und über Austausch und Feedback!

@paul4kant #PIDs #PIDMonitor

At #CoRDI2025, we saw how #PIDs make research more visible and #FAIR. At our poster, we spoke with many members of the #RDM community about the relevance of PIDs and the interoperability of #metadata for sustainable #OpenScience in Germany.

The poster is now also available on Zenodo! 🥳

📢 Check out our new PID icons!

We've created a set of icons to visually represent Persistent Identifiers (#PIDs) and their use cases—from datasets and software to researchers and grants!

💫 Improving data discoverability, facilitating visual analysis, and promoting a more unified understanding of research information.

➡️ Check out the full collection and and carry it into the world!

Together with my colleague Andreas Czerniak, I will report on the progress of the PID Network Germany project at the ROR community meeting on February, 5th.
We are looking forward to it!

@DNB_Aktuelles @gndnet #PIDs #FAIR #GLAM #FDM #PIDNetwork #OER

@PIDNetworkDE a workshop on persistent identifiers of physical objects on 20 February 2025 at @GFZ

It is about the use of #PIDs for physical samples, such as environmental samples, rock samples or cultural objects.

There are exciting presentations e.g. from @nfdi4cat, @lange and @FAIRagro, @dai_weltweit,

The presentations will also be available online!
