Dryad is a non-profit, community-led, general-purpose data-curation repository that publishes and preserves research datasets across disciplines. Every dataset receives a DataCite DOI, and Dryad applies a human curation workflow before publication. It integrates ORCID and ROR for author and affiliation identifiers and promotes data-citation best practice, which makes its author and curation metadata relevant to CRediT contribution capture and to the CASRAI Dictionary's data-citation and curation terms.
What to use from CASRAI
Touchpoints
- 01DataCite DOI minting + data-citation metadata aligned with the dictionary
- 02Curation workflow — maps to curation / validation contribution roles
- 03Author metadata via ORCID; affiliation via ROR
- 04Controlled-vocabulary keywords suitable for dictionary alignment
Setup
Integration steps
- 1Reference the CASRAI Dictionary data-citation terms from /dictionary when preparing deposits
- 2Ensure author ORCIDs and ROR affiliations are attached at submission
- 3Record CRediT contribution roles in the dataset description / README per /credit/for-authors
- 4Cite the resulting DataCite DOI in the related publication's data-availability statement
