2012: STM and DataCite Joint Statement
1. To improve the availability and findability of research data, Datacite
and STM encourage authors of research papers to deposit
researcher validated data in trustworthy and reliable Data
Archives.
2. Datacite and STM encourage Data Archives to enable bi-
directional linking between datasets and publications by using
established and community endorsed unique persistent identifiers
such as database accession codes and DOI's.
3. DataCite and STM encourage publishers and data archives to make
visible or increase visibility of these links from publications to
datasets and vice versa
