ANDS Data Citation Webinar 2012-09-13
Today • Review of • Data citation landscape • The ANDS Cite My Data Service • FAQ’s • Most commonly asked questions • I’m assuming • You understand need for data citation • You understand what a DOI is • You do or will access ANDS services (M-2-M)
The data citation landscape • DataCite • International consortium for data citation • Uses familiar DOI infrastructure • ANDS • Australian registration agent for DataCite • Provides “Cite My Data” service • Citation metrics • Journal companies • CrossCite • Domain portals
How to use the “Cite My Data” service? • Reference: • http://ands.org.au/services/cite-my-data.html • Follow these six steps: • Request service access • Register your details • Receive confirmation • Mint test prefix DOIs • Complete service agreement • Mint production DOIs
Service workflow 0: Registration 1: Request DOI 2: Update DataCite 3: Update ANDS 4: Return DOI 5: Use DOI in harvest
Will there be other workflows? • Yes—based on your feedback • Let us know your requirements • Examples: • retro-minting for RDA collections • self-service webpage
FAQ: What’s different about Cite My Data? • Other ANDS services are: • Relationship between ANDS and data owners • Variable metadata requirements • Australian research and government sector • Cite My Data is different: • Involves international DOI infrastructure • Involves DataCite • Compulsory metadata requirement
FAQ: What happens when ANDS ends? • Short answer: nothing • Longer answer: • Data owners are registered directly with DataCite • Your DOI’s will persist • You will need to find another registration agent
FAQ: How much will this cost me? The service is free to use Government funded data infrastructure DOI address space is effectively infinite
FAQ: What if something goes wrong? • Let us know: • services@ands.org.au • An ANDS Client Liaison officer • For service suggestions, improvements • stuart.hungerford@ands.org.au • services@ands.org.au
FAQ: What if I need 1-1 advice? • Contact your friendly neighborhood CLO • http://projects.ands.org.au/getAllProjects.php?start=all&sort=institution • Contact Karen Visser: • Wide range of community support options • Contact me: • stuart.hungerford@ands.org.au
FAQ: What data granularity to cite? • Firstly consider the data users: • What level would they expect to use the data? • Best practices still evolving • Consider citing at multiple levels: • Parent collection DOI • Data item DOIs • See optional metadata
FAQ: What if my data changes? • Many datasets change for many reasons • No one size fits all answers • Consider snapshots approach: • New version of existing dataset • Consider slices approach: • Changes to an existing dataset (delta) • Changed datasets can refer to each other • See optional metadata • Discuss your specific requirements with ANDS
FAQ: How do I do data citation metrics? • How do I track citations to my data? • Infrastructure well established for publications • Still developing for data • Promising developments: • Domain data portals • Journal companies • CrossCite • Electronic journals
Domain data portals • International domain specific portal • For example: • PANGEA—earth and environmental sciences • http://www.pangaea.de/ • For example: • Dryad—basic and applied biosciences • http://datadryad.org/ • Blurring meaning of a “publication”
New e-journals • Further blurring meaning of “publication” • Deposit data with publication for peer review • For example: • GigaScience—big data from biosciences • http://www.gigasciencejournal.com/ • For example: • ActaCryst E—crystallography • http://journals.iucr.org/e/
How are others doing data citation? ands.org.au/events/index.html
Q and A • References: • http://www.doi.org(The DOI system) • http://datacite.org(DataCite Consortium) • http://ands.org.au/services/cite-my-data.html(Cite My Data service and FAQs) • http://dx.doi.org/10.5438/0002(DataCite metadataschema)
Step 1 • Self check: • Is the data part of the scholarly record? • Can you ensure persistence of the data? • Can you provide mandatory metadata? • Can you access a M-2-M service? • Get in touch: • With ANDS Client Liaison Officer • Or at services@ands.org.au
Step 2 • Provide registration details • To services@ands.org.au • We need: • DOI account name • DOI account contact name • DOI account contact email • Top level domain • IP address range for service clients
Step 3 • Registration confirmation • An email from ANDS: • Confirms use of service test prefix • Looks like 10.5072/*
Step 4 Mint test DOIs Using the test prefix from Step 3 Use these for workflow development Use these for integration and system testing
Step 5 • Service agreement • As per all ANDS M-2-M services • Return signed agreement to ANDS • Scanned copy to services@ands.org.au • Original to your friendly neighbourhood CLO
Step 6 • You will receive email confirming agreement • Start minting production DOIs • These will look like: • 10.4225/*, 10.4226/*, 10.4227/*
