The document discusses Crossref and the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) system. It explains that a DOI prefix is assigned by Crossref and a suffix is assigned by the publisher. It also describes how to deposit metadata through Crossref, including uploading an XML file or using the web deposit form. The document notes that maintaining and depositing good quality metadata is important for readers to find and use registered content.
3. Your prefix
• One prefix may be used for all content
• New titles may be added at any time
• No limit to the number of DOIs created, also no
minimum number is required.

5. DOI suffix
• consistent
• simple
• short

6. Crossref DOI display guidelines
• Always be displayed as a full URL link
• An example of the best practice in displaying a Crossref DOI link is:
https://doi.org/10.1629/22161
• Old format was http://dx.doi.org/
7. Your landing page
• A full bibliographic citation so that the user can verify they have been
delivered to the correct item
• The DOI displayed as a URL, following display guidelines
• A way to access full text: access to full text is completely controlled by
the publisher, but the landing page must be accessible to everyone.

What can I register?
10. more metadata
such as …
reference lists, funding data, ORCID iDs, license data, clinical
trial numbers, errata, retractions, updates and more through
our Crossmark service, JATS-formatted abstracts,
relationships between items…
11. Members also register other
bibliographic metadata to
uniquely identify their content
- this metadata is as
important as the DOI itself
12. Important to maintain your registered content
• Know how to work with the content you register with
Crossref
• So that readers can always find and use the content
you publish
14. Ways to deposit metadata
• Upload XML file (https://doi.crossref.org)
• The manual web deposit form
(https://apps.crossref.org/webdeposit)
• OJS Crossref plugin
• The new Metadata Manager (coming soon!)
15. Create XML
Crossref Schema
Metadata deposit schema: for everything
Metadata deposit schema 4.4.1 (documentation)
Resource schema: for adding most non-bibliographic
metadata to existing records
doi_resources4.3.6.xsd (documentation)
