UbuntuNet Alliance supports Open Science. One of the key components of Open Science is making research output and data locatable, identifiable and citable. Persistent identifiers called digital object identifiers (DOIs) are assigned to research output and data to achieve the three. UbuntuNet Alliance is a Consortium Organisation Member for Datacite, a leading global provider of DOIs for research data. Through this membership, UbuntuNet Alliance enables research and education institutions that have institutional repositories to register and manage DOIs and metadata for their research outputs. In this webinar, we explore the relevance of DOIs to the NRENs and their institutions. We also present the service from the perspective of UbuntuNet Alliance and a worked example use case.
