Why build an open identifier infrastructure? So that anyone can use it to create cool tools and services for the research community.
Open identifiers deserve their own festival!
We’re delighted to invite you to register for PIDapalooza, a two-day festival for scholarly research persistent identifiers (PIDs) organized by California Digital Library, Crossref, DataCite, and ORCiD.
This community gathering for everyone who’s working with PIDs, including digital tech experts, publishers, researchers, tool builders, research organizations, and scholarly infrastructure providers.
The program will include a mixture of PID demos, workshops, brainstorming, updates on the state of the art, and more — and we invite your contributions. Please use this form to tell us about the session you’d like to run. The program committee will review all suggestions received by September 18 and let you know whether you’ve been successful by the first week of October.
Registration is now open. We welcome offers of sponsorship if you are interested in co-producing this together with us- please contact info@pidapalooza.org for details.
Come share your ideas with a crowd of like-minded innovators – and please help us spread the word about PIDapalooza in your community!
Where: Radisson Blu Saga Hotel Reykjavik, Hagatorg, 107 Reykjavik, Iceland
When: 9th and 10th November 2016
We’ll be posting more information about the festival lineup on the PIDapalooza website and on Twitter (@PIDapalooza) in the coming weeks.
We hope to see you in November!
