Dear Colleagues,

DataCite is pleased to announce that The Wellcome Trust has awarded funds to build the Open Global Data Citation Corpus to dramatically transform the data citation landscape. The corpus will store asserted data citations from a diverse set of sources and can be used by any community stakeholder. Aggregated references to data across outputs will help the community monitor impact, inform future funding, and improve the dissemination of research.

Join the virtual kick-off and participate in a conversation between DataCite, Wellcome Trust, Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, EMBL-EBI, COKI, OpenAIRE, and OpenCitations. 
Please register via: https://datacite.zoom.us/webinar/register/7016738815795/WN_Ed3_Bu0bRT-NB4npCPbk-g 

You can find more information about the Open Global Data Citation Corpus in the DataCite blog:

Best regards,
Paul Vierkant
