As was mentioned at the Data Services Forum on August 8th (viewable here: http://uofw.adobeconnect.com/p4np9vcd4sh/), the UW Libraries now subscribes to a data citation tool called EZID. Sign up for this free webinar to learn more about this service and how it can benefit your faculty.
EZID makes it simple for researchers and others to obtain and manage long-term identifiers (DOIs and ARKs) for their digital content. Citation information can also be associated with the identifiers, and this makes DOIs and ARKs powerful tools for tracking usage, getting credit for work, sharing data, and have it reused for more research.
In this free summer webinar, Joan Starr from the California Digital Library will cover
--why data citation and long-term identifiers are important to researchers;
--how EZID can provide an easy-to-use, easy-to-implement identifier service for your institution;
--an overview of EZID's features;
--and, how to get started.
