Dear all,
I would like to draw your attention to the Workshop on PIDs for Academic Events on May 7, 2025; which the Helmholtz Open Science Office co-organizes.
The workshop on PIDs for academic events is part of the event series organized by the PID Network Germany project. The goal of the workshop is to explore the role of persistent identifiers (PIDs) in improving the organization, visibility, integration and quality control of academic events in scientific information infrastructure systems. We will address the diverse information needs of stakeholders, including researchers, conference organizers, publishers, librarians, funders, and research organizations. The workshop aims to clarify why PIDs are crucial for academic events and how the lifecycle of these events can be effectively described using robust metadata. We will show tools and platforms that can leverage event PIDs and discuss how researchers and organizations can benefit from their adoption. We will highlight how PIDs facilitate the connection of diverse outputs from academic events – such as proceedings, videos, slides, and posters – while playing a pivotal role in cataloguing and linking event-related information.
Date: 7 May 2025 , 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Location: Hannover (TIB – German National Library of Science and Technology) + online (talks)
The full program will be announced shortly and registration will open soon.
Best regards, on behalf of the PID Network Germany project!
