Digital Objects Identifiers (DOIs) for scientific events in library catalogues - a librarian's lecture

As part of the metadata curation in ConfIDent each scientific event obtains a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) from DataCite, in order to ensure the persistent accessibility of the dataset.The dissemination of DOIs of scientific events in metadata descriptions for events and publications in various library catalogues leads to multiple links between platforms, to better visibility of the DOIs and to an increase in the level of awareness of ConfIDent among library users and researchers interested in finding the right academic conference to attend.This presentation provides an overview of the various library catalogues and metadata types into which DOIs for scientific events can be added, and gives an outlook on further possible connections between datasets.
