URN Namespace Registration for Persistent Web IDentifiers (PWID)

Research output: Other contributionResearch

Abstract

The PWID URN is a supplement to existing reference standards, where the PWID URN will support references to web archives, including areas that are not supported today: support of references to material in web archives with restricted access. Furthermore, the PWID URN enables technology agnostic references to web archives in general, which can be needed, for instance for references to dynamic web material with frequent updates (e.g. a news site) or a specific version of a web material (e.g. specific version of the DOI handbook).
