[Rdap] CrossRef or Other DOIs for Data Sets

[Fred Chan]

Dear Ruth,

Wonder if you could kindly elaborate on the metadata issue with CrossRef-minted dataset DOI?  Many thanks.

Best regards,
Fred

But it should be noted that some publisher's, most notably the Nature Publishing Group, does not like accepting articles where the data cited uses a Cross-ref DOI, just due to the metadata issue (no comment on the justifiability of that).

Does anyone feel strongly about using (or not using) a certain flavor of DOI for research data sets?

We are the CrossRef registration agency for the Smithsonian and we’ve been doing publications for years but lately have been approached by scientists who want a DOI both for link permanence and citability.

Would anyone recommend against using CrossRef in favor of another DOI type? And if so, which one(s)?


Please pardon my ignorance and let me know if there’s something obvious I am missing.

Thanks,

Alvin
