CESSDA-Questionnaire on PIDs

Transcription

1 CESSDA-Questinnaire n PIDs The persistent identificatin f CESSDA Service Prviders data hldings requires mre attentin. While sme ERICs achieved practical and administrative successes (e.g. CLARIN), CESSDA still lacks a cmmn apprach t PID services use. T bridge this gap GESIS and cntributing partners - DANS and SND - have the task f preparing administrative guidelines fr persistent identifiers within CESSDA. The utcme f this task will lay the grundwrk fr the develpment f a cmmn CESSDA PID Plicy. T accmplish this we wish t invlve all CESSDA members frm the very beginning. We ask fr yur help btaining an verview f the different CESSDA stakehlders needs and prblems as relates t a cmmn CESSDA PID plicy. This questinnaire is fr all CESSDA member rganizatins. It builds n the DASISH and DwB prjects previus effrts and seeks t determine the current status qu fr PID usage and demands related t a cmmn PID plicy within CESSDA. We kindly ask yu t answer the fllwing questinnaire (which takes abut ten t fifteen minutes). Deadline is Octber 25, If yu have any questins r remarks, please dn't hesitate t cntact Kerrin.Brschewski@gesis.rg Questin 1) ALL a) Please enter the name f yur rganizatin: b) Des yur rganizatin use persistent identifiers (ther than internal identifiers) fr its data hldings? Yes (cntinue with questin 2) N (cntinue with questin 4) Questin 2) USER a) Please indicate which f the persistent identifier(s) yur rganizatin uses (fr its data hldings), and hw satisfied yur rganizatin is with (each f) yur used persistent identifier(s): cmpletely cmpletely nt dissatisfied satisfied used ARK DOI Handle PURL URN:NBN Other 1: Other 2: Other 3: b) Yur rganizatin registers the (different) PIDs with which PID registratin service prvider? ARK: DOI: Handle:

Yes N (cntinue with questin 6) b) If Yes (in 3a): Which PID system(s) is yur rganizatin cnsidering (fr its data hldings)? (multiple answers are pssible) ARK DOI Handle PURL URN:NBN Other 1: Other 2: Other 3: c) If Yes (in 3a): Wuld it/they be as a substitute fr r as an additin t the PID system(s) yur rganizatin currently uses r bth? Substitute fr ne f the currently used PID systems (in case yur rganizatin uses mre than ne PID system) Substitute fr part f the currently used PID systems (in case yur rganizatin uses mre than ne PID system) Substitute fr the currently used PID system(s) entirely In additin t currently used PID system(s) Still remains t be decided

Yes N (cntinue with questin 3 nnuser) b) If Yes (in 4a): Which PID system(s) is yur rganizatin cnsidering (fr its data hldings)? (multiple answers are pssible) ARK DOI Handle PURL URN:NBN Other 1: Other 2: Other 3: Questin 5) NON-USER Think abut yur rganizatin: hw significant are the fllwing needs when cnsidering intrducing a PID system? nt at all significant significant Sufficient technical supprt Sufficient financial resurces Sufficient human resurces Sufficient time resurces Trust in PID systems Sufficient Infrmatin n PID system Special educatin/training Existing PID systems need t be mre attractive Availability f metadata fr the resurces that need t be identified Lwer wrk input PIDs are a key issue fr the rganizatin Other 1: Other 2: Other 3:

Please indicate hw imprtant each f the fllwing authrity and credibility issues is fr yur rganizatin? nt at all Authrity and Credibility imprtant imprtant Trust in PID authrity Service ffered by a public institutin PID system is widely used and accepted Business mdel: cmmercial Business mdel: cst recvery Business mdel: free f charge And indicate hw imprtant each f the fllwing metadata issues is fr yur rganizatin, when cnsidering a PID system? nt at all Metadata imprtant imprtant Prvisin f descriptive metadata Offered metadata is machine and human readable Pssibility t search in metadata Multiple pssibilities t transfer metadata (t the PID service prvider) Metadata is discipline specific And indicate hw imprtant each f the fllwing architecture and infrastructure issues is fr yur rganizatin, when cnsidering a PID system?
