(Please excuse cross-postings) Do you manage or help others manage any kinds of digital objects, such as texts, data sets, terms, or images? Do you need an easy solution to citing and providing access to this kind of work? 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, I'll 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. Who should attend: This webinar will be informative for researchers and librarians supporting researchers.
