As a researcher, I have previously used the website of the DOI foundation (https://www.doi.org/) for the purpose of checking if a DOI was registered to my research paper / journal article. Given that you have concluded written agreements with CERN, Figshare, OSF and ORCID, is there a mechanism on your website (similar to the DOI foundation) that would enable me to check if my DOIs have been registered with DataCite Commons? If a research paper / journal article has been registered with DataCite Commons, what happens to that registration if the research paper / journal article (that has been assigned a DOI) is deleted by the author/right holder of the paper/article?

The Open Science Framework is part of the Center for Open Science. They are copied on this thread and can provide you with more information about the terms under which your content is made available on their platform. In the message you had sent me a little earlier, I noticed that you have listed the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and Figshare Consortium as members. Can you provide the terms and conditions of the written agreements concluded between DataCite Commons and CERN as well as DataCite Commons and Figshare? The terms of the agreements for each organisation are basically the same as those I shared in my previous email.

Also, can you tell me more about DOI registration with DataCite Commons? How often does DataCite Commons register DOIs? Does DataCite Commons register DOIs on a daily basis and/or a weekly basis and/or a monthly basis? There are currently more than 50 million DOIs registered by DataCite Members.

Is this true? OSF is a DataCite Member and register DOIs using DataCite services (DataCite Commons is for exposing metadata, not registering DOIs). Has OSF used the services of DataCite Commons for the purpose of registering a DOI for my research papers / journal articles? For this example https://osf.io/TVRQE/ there is a DOI assigned: https://doi.org/10. 17605/OSF.IO/TVRQE . If yes, have OSF and Data Cite Commons concluded any written agreements for the purpose of registering DOIs? If yes, will you disclose that agreement? As a DataCite Member https://datacite.org/members/ OSF have signed an agreement with DataCite, similar to this one which is shared by ETH Library: https://ethz.ch/ content/dam/ethz/associates/ethlibrary-dam/documents/Publizieren-und-Archivieren/ Publizieren-und-Registrieren/eth-datacite_terms_and_conditions.pdf Are there other platforms who use the services of DataCite Commons for the purpose of registering DOIs to research papers / journal articles that are published with them? Yes, DataCite has a global membership of libraries and research institutions dedicated to sharing research openly https://datacite.org/members/ Unfortunately, your email from yesterday did not address several questions I had about DataCite Commons. For instance, on your website, you say that "DataCite Commons was officially launched in October 2020 by the FREYA project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 777523."

If yes, can provide me with the terms and conditions of the contractual agreements that were concluded between OSF and DataCite Commons? 2) What exactly is the nature of the relationship between DataCite Commons and the European Union (E.U)? Will you disclose the terms and conditions of the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program grant agreements No.: 777523? 3) How did you exactly come across some of the journal articles and research papers I have published on OSF? 4) Does DataCite Commons help individual researchers create digital object identifiers (DOI) for their research papers and their journal articles?

II)               Request for a Fee Waiver and Expedited Processing   The requested records have demonstrated that Cheslie Kryst was a Black/African American woman who (1) had been born April 28th 1991 in the State of Michigan; (2) had earned a MBA and a Law Degree from Wake Forest University; (3) had been crowned Miss USA in 2019 when she was 28 years old; (4) had been considered a role-model for her professional and academic achievements as well as her personal beliefs, which resonated beyond the borders of the U.S.A. I (personally) believe that there should be more conversations about the use of suicide watch in certain prisons, jails, police lockup facilities and mental health asylums. As a matter of fact, I would like to express concerns about certain facilities (particularly those in Maryland) using suicide watch for the sole purpose of emasculating Black men. I think suicide watch in prisons, jails, mental health asylums and/or other lock up facilities should be used in circumstances where prisoners/patients pose an imminent threat to themselves. I don’t think it’s appropriate to use https://ncsbe-nc.nextrequest.com/requests/22-40 2/12

  32. 3/28/24, 12:30 PM Request 22-40 - NextRequest - Modern FOIA & Public Records Request Software suicide watch as a preventive tool for future behavior (inside the locked and con?ned environment) that has not yet been displayed. As a former health care worker, I was saddened by the circumstances, which led to the many recent conversations about suicide among women and racial minorities. I have (personally) found the suicide of Cheslie Kryst to be extremely tragic: I can’t imagine a more horrible way to die than jumping o? a building. The articles, which have described her suicide depict (in my judgment) a real nightmare. Beware. In a recent article published following the suicide of Cheslie Kryst, the author writes that “maintaining appearances while wading through a murky mental state is something embedded in history for Black communities, within which much has been said about the presence of mental health stigma. But it is, in fact, present in most communities – and why it exists among Black folks is unique and multifaceted. Both Woods and Wise note that Black people have faced countless atrocities – enslavement, Jim Crow, a plethora of medical traumas and ‘intergenerational trauma,’ or trauma that is passed down – that have required strength and resilience without the aid of mental health care. Because of this, there’s less community understanding about what constitutes mental health. Such levels of resilience and strength are seen as generally positive attitudes, particularly against the type of societal stress Black women face, despite being unrealistic and allowing no room for human emotions. The psychological cost of being strong, or how hardships a?ect someone’s ability to understand themselves, goes unaccounted. And that idea of ‘strength’ even trickles down into our interpersonal relationships – a notion many are pushing against. (…) The advice Woods gives for checking up on a friend is to be clear that you’re checking up on them because you see that they constantly interact with the world as someone strong — and you're wondering if there are times when they need you to be there so they can be vulnerable. Then acknowledge their feelings, but don’t minimize them. Ask how are they comfortable receiving support, if it’s OK to check in on them regularly, how often they’d appreciate it or if they’d like you to point them to helpful resources.” [xiv] In another article published following the suicide of Cheslie Kryst, the author notes: “It would be easy to say that changes in suicide risk in the Black America have crept up on the country. (…) But research going back decades showed an increase in suicide among young Black men from the 1960s to the 1990s, followed by a decade-long decrease and stabilization— and then, in the 2000s, another increase among all groups, with a disproportionate share of the growth occurring among younger Latino, Native, Asian, and Black Americans. Even before the pandemic, suicide risk among people of color in the United States was concentrated among the young. (…) Research informs treatment, public health interventions and even what the public understands about suicide risk. In the United States there’s been signi?cant conversation about ?rearms access and suicide risk, for example; that focus may help to save the lives of middle-aged men in particular, who are more likely to die after using a ?rearm. But young Americans who die by suicide are more likely to use other methods, which https://ncsbe-nc.nextrequest.com/requests/22-40 3/12

  33. 3/28/24, 12:30 PM Request 22-40 - NextRequest - Modern FOIA & Public Records Request Software have not received the same level of attention. It’s no coincidence that e?orts to prevent suicide in Black communities remain less e?ective than they could be. ‘We are working on improving our suicide prevention strategies, and our suicide intervention, but we are not centering other lived experiences, namely those [of people] who are not white,’ says Polanco-Roman. ‘Our prevention strategies are not culturally responsive. They’re most responsive to white populations, who are better represented in the research that we carry out.’” [xv] The core issues raised in this records request are the following. 1) What conversations if any have you had about the academic and professional achievements of Cheslie Kryst? What conversations have you had about the decision of Cheslie Kryst to use the platform provided to her by Miss USA to speak out in favor of marijuana legalization, the Black Lives Matter movement and against the 6 months prison sentence of Brock Turner for the rape of Chanel Miller? What conversations have you had about the suicide Cheslie Kryst? 2) Have your public/mental health o?ces issued guidelines on how to deal with a person su?ering from depression? Have your public/mental health o?ces issued guidelines on how to deal with a person who may be considering suicide? What is the policy of your prisons, your jails and your mental health asylums on the appropriate use of suicide watch? On the bases of the issues that have been raised, I believe this records request should be expedited and all fees waived. In my judgment, the records I have requested to be promptly disclosed (1) puts into question the government’s integrity because of decisions that have adversely impacted public con?dence about the manner in which women and racial minorities are treated in the United States of America (U.S.A); (2) identi?es operations and activities of the federal government in concert with U.S local and state government; (3) are meaningfully informative about government operations or activities in order to be ‘likely to contribute’ to and increase public understanding of those operations or activities. I hereby declare under penalty of perjury that all the statements I have made are to the best of my knowledge true and accurate.  Have a good day.

(…) When I graduated from college and opted to continue my studies at Wake Forest University, I decided I’d earn a law degree and an MBA at the same time. (Why stop at two degrees when you can have three?) I joined a trial team at school and won a national championship. I competed in moot court; won essay competitions; and earned local, regional, and national executive board positions. I nearly worked myself to death, literally, until an eight-day stint in a local hospital sparked the development of a new perspective. I discovered that the world’s most important question, especially when asked repeatedly and answered frankly, is: why? Why earn more achievements just to collect another win? Why pursue another plaque or medal or line item on my résumé if it’s for vanity’s sake, rather than out of passion? Why work so hard to capture the dreams I’ve been taught by society to want when I continue to ?nd only emptiness? Too often, I noticed that the only people impressed by an accomplishment were those who wanted it for themselves. Meanwhile, I was rewarded with a lonely craving for the next award. Some would see this hunger and label it “competitiveness”; others might call it the unquenchable thirst of insecurity. I was further along in the journey of learning this lesson when I won Miss USA. My term was not an exercise in the expected; instead, it felt ?lled with purpose. In fact, from the moment I won, my reign ignited a heightened desire to commit myself to passion, intent, and authenticity. (…) Women who compete in pageants are supposed to have a middle-of-the- road opinion — if any — so as not to o?end. I talked candidly about my views on the legalization of marijuana, the Trump administration’s immigration policies, anti-abortion laws, the con?rmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett, and the successes and failures of criminal justice reform. I openly supported the resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement and marched in protests over the summer. I wasn’t searching to collect more awards or recognition during my reign. Rather, I fed the passion that made waking up each morning feel worthwhile: speaking out against injustice.

"I think it was clear that most people wanted the next president to be able to choose the next Supreme Court Justice. And I think it was clear that our legislators didn't care. That was hurtful." In September, a Washington Post-ABC poll found that just 38% of Americans thought Donald Trump should nominate Ginsburg's replacement, while 57% wanted the new justice to be nominated by the winner of the next presidential election.  “There were so many polls that clearly said people want the next president to decide this," Kryst added. "So it was really disconcerting to see just the process, and the lack of thought for the people that those representatives have been elected to speak for." Miss USA Cheslie Kryst said she was ‘frightened’ by how Congress handled Amy Coney Barrett’s Supreme Court nomination, Business Insider.: https://www.insider.com/miss-usa-frightened-by-how-supreme-court- nomination-was-handled-2020-11 https://ncsbe-nc.nextrequest.com/requests/22-40 7/12

  37. 3/28/24, 12:30 PM Request 22-40 - NextRequest - Modern FOIA & Public Records Request Software [x] Biden Commits to Promise Of Nominating First Black Woman To Supreme Court, MSNBC.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8H8L77vZV0 Predictably, the overall number who say nominating a Black woman is either very or somewhat important is much higher among Democrats (80 percent) and 2020 Biden voters (78 percent) than among independents (35 percent), Republicans (16 percent) or 2020 Donald Trump voters (10 percent). Likewise, just 36 percent of Americans say Biden’s pledge was a "good idea," while the rest say it was either “a bad idea” (32 percent) or “neither good nor bad” (32 percent). And just a third of Americans say they have “a great deal” or “quite a bit” of con?dence that Biden will select "the right kind of person" to replace Breyer on the court (33 percent), or that they themselves expect to support the nominee Biden puts forward (34 percent) — noticeably lower than the 39 percent who said they expected to support "President Trump's Supreme Court nominee" in September 2020, just before he nominated Amy Coney Barrett. One possible explanation for this tepid response is that many Americans seem to believe that their leaders can and should choose only "the most quali?ed" person regardless of race, gender or politics — an ideal they think Biden failed to live up to when he explicitly limited the pool to Black women. Yet the striking thing is that the vast majority of those same Americans polled — and a smaller but still signi?cant majority of Republicans — agree that all three of the Black women reportedly at the top of Biden’s shortlist meet the standards for quali?cation. The results of the poll are unambiguous. When shown a name, photograph and a brief résumé, including age, education and prior experience, the share of Americans who say that Ketanji Brown Jackson, Leondra Kruger and J. Michelle Childs are either “very” or “somewhat” quali?ed to “sit on the Supreme Court” hovers at around two-thirds. For all the controversy and consternation over Biden’s decision to consider only Black women, that represents a remarkable degree of consensus in a country as divided as the U.S. All three were listed as “potential Supreme Court nominee[s]” but not as “potential Biden Supreme Court nominee[s].” Given the context, many partisan respondents likely assumed that they were candidates on Biden's shortlist and then took that into account when rating their quali?cations, for better or worse. Childs was identi?ed as 55 years old; a graduate of University of South Carolina Law School, with a legal master's degree from Duke University Law School; a former senior partner in a South Carolina law ?rm; and a current judge on the U.S. Circuit Appeals Court for South Carolina who has been nominated to serve on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. A full 70 percent of Americans say Childs is quali?ed to sit on the court, including 60 percent of Republicans. https://ncsbe-nc.nextrequest.com/requests/22-40 8/12
