Metadata Versioning for Persistent Identifiers
Triet Doan , Jana Böhm, Sven Bingert
Gesellschaft für wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH Göttingen, Germany
FAIR principles guide best practice for research data management. FAIR means Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. To reuse digital objects, one needs to have full provenance information on the object and its metadata. This paper presents two approaches for tracking metadata changes. One uses Git, the other PID features.

How accurate is the work done by the volunteers who do most of the work on crowdsourcing projects in cultural heritage? We analyze the results of the 1970 MIssouri Death Certificate indexing project, applying traditional quality metrics from Optical Character Recignition and Handwritten Text Recognition to human-created text.
