> Hello DCMI,
> 
> Since many of us are interested in citations to datasets, I want to make sure you are all aware of a just-launched open document: A Community Hub for improving tool support for tracking citations to datasets and other nontraditional products.
> 
> As you may know, it is not currently possible to track citations to datasets through Scopus and ISI Web of Science, even if they are cited with DOIs.   The purpose of this hub is to provide:
> a central meeting ground for the many individuals and organizations interested in this issue
> a living document that captures current unmet needs
> an area to inventory and develop initiatives to encourage vendors to address these issues as soon as possible
> DCMI members are uniquely positioned to provide insight and direction... we'd appreciate your input.
> 
> Please check it out, add what you know, suggest some ideas, and send the link around to others who care about this issue so that we can achieve data citation tracking through Scopus and Web of Science ASAP.
> 
> Thanks!
