Contacts

The Contacts tab lists all of the Direct Member contacts. The contact Name, Email, Roles and Date Created are displayed here. Click the "Add Contact" button on the left to add new organizational contacts.

Repositories

The Repositories tab lists Repositories under the Direct Member. The Repository information including the Repository ID and system email can be viewed here.

To search for an individual Repository, enter the Repository name or the Repository ID in the search box and click Search. The default sorting order for Repositories is by Name and can be changed to Date Joined or Relevance. Results can be filtered by Year joined, Type, Repository Type, and Software.

Direct Members can create a Repository from this page by clicking “Add Repository”.

Prefixes

The DOI prefix is used as a namespace so DOIs are globally unique without requiring global coordination for each new identifier. All DOI prefixes are numbers without any semantic meaning.

The Prefixes tab contains a list of all prefixes assigned to a Direct Member. A new prefix is assigned automatically when you create a Repository.

📘

We recommend one prefix per Repository. Create a new Repository account if a new prefix is required.

1924

DOIs

The DOIs tab lists the DOIs registered by all Repositories under the Direct Member. This list can be sorted by Date Updated (default), Date Created, DOI, Alphabetically, or Relevance.

You can filter DOIs using the facets on the left, including State, Resource Type, Year created, Repository, Prefix, Schema Version, and Link Check Status. The search bar can be used to find an individual DOI.

You can export DOI metadata from the DOIs tab. Click “Export DOI Metadata” to export a CSV file containing the basic metadata of the DOIs in the list.

Only the 25 records on the page view will be exported. To export more records, scroll through to the next page.
