Discover and Create Rich Metadata with the DataCite REST API
Kelly Stathis, Sara El-Gebali, Bryceson Laing
DataCite
Persistent identifier metadata is a key resource for research discovery and machine actionability. When organizations register Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) for research outputs and resources, the accompanying metadata is harvested to power search and discovery platforms and contributes to preservation of the scholarly record.
This workshop will guide participants on using the DataCite REST API to work with DataCite DOI metadata. Participants will learn how to:
1) Retrieve DOI metadata: Participants will learn how to use the DataCite REST API to search DOIs in the DataCite Metadata Store, including how to construct queries, apply filters, and retrieve a complete list of results.
2) Create DOIs with rich metadata: Participants will try out DOI registration in the DataCite test system and learn how to update DOI metadata, taking full advantage of the DataCite Metadata Schema’s capabilities.
