I've been asked by the PIDapalooza team, to forward this:
#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#~#
PIDs’R’Us and if they’re you, too, please join us for the second PIDapalooza https://pidapalooza.org/ in Girona, Spain on January 23-24, for a two-day celebration of persistent identifiers. Together, we will do the impossible - make a meeting about persistent identifiers and networked research fun!
Brought to you by California Digital Library, Crossref, DataCite, and ORCID, this year’s sessions are organized around eight broad topics:
-
PID myths -
Achieving persistence -
PIDs for emerging uses -
Legacy PIDs -
Bridging worlds -
PIDagogy -
PID stories -
Kinds of persistence
