In the evolving landscape of open scholarly infrastructure, DataCite is more than an organization; it’s a thriving community of dedicated stakeholders around the globe. Together we have embarked on a journey to redefine the way we interact with research outputs and resources. With our updated tagline, “Connecting Research, Advancing Knowledge,” DataCite is setting a transformative course for the research community.

ources are openly available and connected so that their reuse can advance knowledge across and between disciplines, now and in the future. To help guide and support our growth and ongoing development, DataCite has several committees for community members to advise and support DataCite:

Community Engagement Steering Group (CESG), with Regional Expert Groups

Services and Technology Steering Group (STSG)

Metadata Working Group (WG)

These groups provide a venue for participation and feedback by interested community members and help us with priority setting and identify strategies related to our services, metadata, and outreach.

We are happy to announce that we currently have an open call for nominations for new steering and working group members! Each group has open seats for representatives from member organizations, as well as seats for representatives from non-member organizations who bring new expertise to the groups. Group members will be chosen based on their specific expertise. We strive for diversity and are therefore looking to include members from different regions, genders, backgrounds, and types of organizations. We specifically encourage members from Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia to apply.
