At KU, we use dc.identifier.doi to store DOIs for anything in the repository 
that has one.  This includes those materials for which we assign DOis, such as 
articles from journals that we publish<https://journals.ku.edu/>, datasets, or 
Open Educational Resources created with the support of the Libraries.

We use dc.relation.isversionof to store links to published material for which 
there is no DOI.

Subject: [dspace-community] Best Practices in DSpace DOIs and Dublin Core?

1. If your DSpace instance is generating DOIs and storing them in the DSpace 
Dublin Core metadata, how are you doing this?

To be specific, are you (A) storing the DSpace DOI in the same metadata field 
as the DSpace handle? dc.identifier.uri? (See for example: 
https://conservancy.umn.edu/handle/11299/188066 ... which stores both the 
handle and the doi in dc.identifier.)

Or, are you (B) using a different metadata field to store the DSpace DOI? (One 
might use dc.identifier.doi, for example? But I haven't seen this used for this 
purpose yet.)

2. With the above in mind, where do you store non-DSpace DOIs? For example, if 
the work has a doi that resolves to a different site (a CrossRef journal doi, 
probably), do you store that external doi in dc.identifier.doi? Or do you store 
it in a different metadata field, such as ... dc.relation.isversionof?

3. Finally, are you aware of any downstream issues that might result from 
choosing to store the DSpace DOI in the same DC field with the handle? Will 
sites that harvest or crawl our metadata fail to see the DOI?
