Scholarly information is fragmented, workflows are inefficient, and trust in research has been eroding in recent years. There are a number of reasons for this: too much time is being spent on administrative tasks; content discoverability, including access rights, is not optimized; researchers aren't getting the recognition they deserve and their publishers want; and there's a lack of the transparency needed to (re)build trust in research. In addition, publishers, in particular, need better information to improve strategic decision-making. Recent reports from Australia and the UK have shown that widespread adoption of persistent identifiers (PIDs) and their associated metadata could save tens of thousands of researcher hours and tens of millions of dollars for each of those two countries. In this session, you will hear from a broad range of stakeholders about how publishers, libraries, and other stakeholders can contribute to and benefit from improved scholarly workflows.
