Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

COMET<\/a> is a collaborative initiative designed to enhance the completeness, consistency, and interoperability of metadata across the research information ecosystem. By prioritizing openness and inclusivity, COMET will establish a curation model that facilitates a wide range of stakeholders to collectively enrich metadata. We respect persistent identifiers (PIDs) and their associated metadata as important shared sources of information and are committed to working closely with existing PID infrastructures. In all of its work, our model will emphasize responsible, equitable, and transparent practices that adhere to community-led governance standards. Unlike existing approaches that often create silos of information, COMET\u2019s model will democratize metadata creation while promoting shared accountability and collaboration. Through actionable frameworks and tools, our model will distribute the workload across stakeholders, reducing the burden on individual creators while advancing open scholarship with enriched metadata as a reliable foundation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goals <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We aim to bring together metadata experts and open infrastructure advocates to harness the collective expertise of the research community to transform how we exchange enriched research metadata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deliverables<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  • Collaboratively define the scope and aims of a model where the community enriches persistent identifier (PID) metadata<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Articulate shared problems and ways to work toward the solution<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Create documentation for a Call for Action to help us reach these solutions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
