Join us for a series of live webinars, where we will discuss how the persistent identifiers ORCID, ROR, and DOI enable interoperability across scholarly digital services while also ensuring the discoverability of research from and about Africa.
Persistent identifiers (PIDs) are unique and enduring labels assigned to digital objects, resources, or entities, such as research datasets, academic papers, books, websites, and other item types. In scholarly records, PIDs can also be assigned to individual researchers (ORCID) and research institutions (ROR).
This webinar series aims to assist African researchers, librarians, and institutions in the adoption of digital tools and persistent identifiers for a significant increase of African research discoverability, globally and to increase efficiency in scholarly workflows.
