This EIFL webinar for journal editors, publishers, librarians and others involved in DOI registration will show how providing comprehensive metadata when registering DOIs for research output supports indexing, citation tracking and interoperability with scholarly databases. 

A DOI is a permanent, unique link to a research output that makes it easy to find, cite, and reliably access over time. While it is usually sufficient to submit only basic information such as author names and titles when registering DOIs, rich metadata (abstracts, keywords, references, persistent identifiers for authors and institutions, funding information) significantly improve discoverability, linking with related research and integration of scholarly outputs into indexing services. 

Webinar participants will also receive guidance on improving metadata quality.
