ORCID identifier
The ORCID identifier can be used
Books and series have identifiers to set them apart.
All publications published by the university have a unique ISBN (International Book Standard Number), that helps find and use them through different databases. Otherwise, they might remain as “gray literature” that is hard to find and utilize. Both printed and online versions have an ISBN of their own.
All university publication series have their own unique ISSN for the same reason. Both identifiers are added to the publication in the publishing services.
ISBNs are not handed over in advance.
To obtain an ISBN for non-serial publications, the online publication must be submitted to Osuva and the printed publication must be submitted to the Tritonia collections. For further information, please contact julkaisut@uwasa.fi.
Web pages change, move, or disappear. Persistent identifiers are more reliable than regular web addresses.
Persistent identifiers (PID) for documents are publisher's commitment to keep documents available regardless of changes in web pages. Persistent identifiers are registered centrally. When the end-user wishes to access a certain document, the identifier in their request is ‘resolved’, i.e., the correct document is retrieved without the end-user needing to know the exact location of the document.
DOI - Digital Object Identifier
Handle
URN - Uniform Resource Name
ARK - Archival Resource Key
University's publications get the URN identifier based on the ISBN number in the publishing services.
