Why use DOI? How is Oroboros involved?

Digital Object Identifier (DOI)

• DOI is a persistent identifier used to uniquely identify online publications in order to ensure they remain traceable, searchable and citable over the long term. Compared to other types of persistent identifiers, the DOI system is widespread and well established in the life sciences arena, and it provides widely accepted visible proof that a publication is citable.
• DOIs can generally only be assigned to entire collections and their constituent parts – not to individual items from a collection. That means, for example, that Oroboros will assign DOIs for the articles that appear on a regular basis in our Open Access online preprint journal Mitochondr Physiol Network, MitoPedia, and in various series of abstracts.

In January 2019 an agreement for provision of digital identifiers was concluded by and between ZB MED and Oroboros Instruments:

ZB MED

• public foundation German National Library of Medicine, Information Centre for Life Sciences: Stiftung öffentlichen Rechts Deutsche Zentralbibliothek für Medizin, Informations-Zentrum Lebenswissenschaften, ZB MED
• principal place of business: Gleueler Str. 60, 50931 Köln, Germany
• URL: https://www.zbmed.de/en/
• ZB MED is a member of DataCite e. V. and a procurement agency for digital object identifiers (DOI names). By offering its DOI registration service, ZB MED facilitates and promotes not-for-profit online publications in the fields of medicine, health, and nutritional, environmental and agricultural sciences.

Oroboros Instruments

• Schöpfstrasse 18, A-6020 Innsbruck, Austria
• URL: http://oroboros.at
• Oroboros as a Data Centre (DC) is entitled to assign DOI names to selected publications (particularly preprints) and abstracts.

Rights and obligations of Oroboros as DC

Oroboros as a Data Centre (DC) is responsible for:

a. the storage and ensuring the persistence of the scientific objects

b. the provision of access, review process and maintenance of the Metadata

c. the quality control

Property and user rights

• The registration of scientific content does not include any transfer or assignment of ownership of any Intellectual Property right (IPR).
• In all cases where copyright applies, DC warrants that it owns the copyright and intellectual property rights of the Metadata registered by ZB MED and is entitled to the registration of the objects. In the event third parties make claims against ZB MED or DataCite e. V. in connection with these rights, DC shall avert all claims against ZB MED or its cooperation partners and indemnify ZB MED and its cooperation partners for any claims by third parties which relate to any possible legal infringement through the storage and the distribution of Metadata, if the DC is at fault. This shall not apply, if the use of the Metadata by ZB MED constitutes a breach of the rights granted in the signed agreement.
• ZB MED is entitled to integrate the metadata into ZB MED services, use the metadata and grant access to items of content by ZB MED services (e.g. cataloguing for ZB MED portals) or by the access services of cooperation partners.
