Expanding Access to DataCite Metadata: New Public and Monthly Data Files Now Available

DataCite brings together descriptive metadata for millions of research outputs, resources, and activities, serving systems across the world that rely on DataCite for high-quality metadata to put research in context and enable downstream discovery, reuse, and impact. As a vital source of open data and a foundational infrastructure provider, we are committed to making DataCite metadata as open and as usable as possible. In line with that objective, we are excited to release our latest annual public data file and also announce the launch of a new monthly data file service.

Abstract

DataCite brings together descriptive metadata for millions of research outputs, resources, and activities, serving systems across the world that rely on DataCite for high-quality metadata to put research in context and enable downstream discovery, reuse, and impact. As a vital source of open data and a foundational infrastructure provider, we are committed to making DataCite metadata as open and as usable as possible. In line with that objective, we are excited to release our latest annual public data file and also announce the launch of a new monthly data file service.
