[Esip-sample-curation] Esip-sample-curation Digest, Vol 23, Issue 4

Dear Colleagues,

I am a member of the RDA Complex Citation WG and will happily be involved.

I would also like to point out that in the case of material samples,
citation of lists can already be done, although maybe in a rather less
sophisticated way. Put simply, IGSN IDs can be used for sample
aggregates/collections, and so one could easily add an IGSN ID to each
sample, and then one to the list whereby individuals are linked as children
through the relationType attribute
<https://support.datacite.org/docs/connecting-to-works> of the
relatedIndentifier property in the DataCite Metadata Schema. A list built
in this way would of course not have the flexibility envisioned by the
'reliquary' concept, but at least would/could be fairly standardized.

Best wishes,
Rorie

P.S. I apologize that I am not actively engaged in the Sample Curation
Cluster. I really would like to be as the outcomes of the work are very
important for the IGSN ID. However, the meetings are currently at 05:00 JST
and move to 04:00 JST for the coming months. If we can find a way for me to
be more connected, it would be great. [Val, maybe you and I need a chat(?)]
