Announcing DataCite Metadata Schema 4.6

As DataCite continually works to support our growing community, updating the DataCite Metadata Schema to better represent community use cases supports our goals of driving metadata quality and completeness. Today, we’re excited to share the release of DataCite Metadata Schema 4.6, which expands the resourceTypeGeneral, relatedIdentifierType, relationType, contributorType, and dateType controlled lists in response to community feedback. We also updated the documentation to clarify allowed values for language codes. Everything is described in the Version Update notes in the documentation, available through the web and in PDF format.
