I’m pleased to share that the DSpace Steering Group has approved the formation of a new “DSpace & PIDs” interest group to convene interested community members in discussions related to the presence and functionality of various Persistent Identifiers (PIDs) in DSpace, such as ORCID, DataCite DOIs, Crossref DOIs, ROR, etc. Please see the DSpace & PIDs Interest Group Charter <https://wiki.lyrasis.org/spaces/DSPACE/pages/446398761/PID+Interest+Group+Charter> for more details on the purpose and background of the group.

If you are interested in these discussions, please register for the meeting <https://lyrasis.zoom.us/meeting/register/PidmVLNIQemH30s5f583RA#/registration> regardless of whether you can attend or not. The calls will be recorded, and the recordings and notes will be shared with all registrants, with opportunities for feedback to be shared asynchronously. The DSpace & PIDs Interest Group wiki page <https://wiki.lyrasis.org/spaces/DSPACE/pages/446398759/DSpace+Repository+Persistent+Identifiers+PIDs+Interest+Group+DSpace+PIDs+Interest+Group> will have all of the meeting information, notes, etc. We anticipate that each subsequent meeting will have a pre-determined topic of focus, largely based on existing PID-related Github tickets <https://docs.google.com/document/d/18oQBm0f2zNU0ymfUePS2fl2t1QGoN_9oVdD6KM86lNw/edit?tab=t.0#bookmark=id.m6nc1uuh1iri>. We realize that interested parties are scattered across multiple timezones, so scheduling for future meetings will rely heavily on the availability of key experts and stakeholders related to the identified topics. Anyone with an interest in DSpace and PIDs is welcome to join the meetings, participate in discussions, and share feedback.
