7. Persistent identifier (PID) schemes

DataCite have, over the years, supported scaling of various identifier communities through governance, sustainability, insurance, and technical implementation facets. These partnership support convergence on our vision “Connecting research, identifying knowledge”. In supporting larger volumes of registrations, it would not change our focus as this is our trajectory and aligned with our mission. Together with IGSN and others we expect to scale our infrastructure services to support increasing registration, resolution and discovery of identifiers. As an example, one of our members registers DOIs on the species seen in DNA clusters such as https://dx.doi.org/10.15156/BIO/TH005107. We welcome continued discussions about collaboration with communities such as DiSSCo.
