Dear all,

I assume some of you already know of this. It could make sense that someone 
from CIDOC were present, and most of the relevant people read this list, I 
believe.

Kind regards,

Øyvind

I'm writing to invite you to a workshop on the potential of persistent 
identifiers in the humanities with a focus on History. The workshop will take 
place in London at the British Library on Friday 9th December.

Persistent identifiers (PIDs) are increasingly embedded in the services that 
researchers use every day, enabling unambiguous attribution of the full range 
of scholarly outputs. This makes it easier for data producers and researchers 
to get credit for their contributions; for data centres, universities and 
funders to track the impact of the research they facilitate; for publishers to 
incorporate data into scholarly writing; and for researchers to discover and 
cite data with clear provenance.

Uptake in the humanities, however, lags behind other disciplines. We are 
running a series of workshops to better understand the potential for persistent 
identifier services in the humanities, identify barriers to uptake and create a 
roadmap to guide future development.

It would be great if you or someone from your team could participate. If you 
would like to recommend someone to attend, please let us know and we will try 
to extend an invitation.

Attendance is free, but places are limited so that we can have an active and 
open discussion. Please register by Thursday 3 November at 
https://thor_pidsinhumanities.eventbrite.com<https://thor_pidsinhumanities.eventbrite.com/>
  so that we can arrange catering and plan appropriately.

The workshop is organised through the EU-funded THOR project 
(https://project-thor.eu/).

If you have any questions, please send enquiries to 
[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.

Kind regards,
Dr Adam Farquhar
Head of Digital Scholarship, The British Library
THOR Project Coordinator
