The RDA-US Targeted International working GRoup Facilitation Program (TIGRUS) recently announced the first two RDA Working Groups (WG) it will be facilitating as part of its pilot: the National PID Strategies WG and the Common Standard for Machine-actionable Data Management Plans WG.
With the National PID Strategies WG, TIGRUS will liaise with group co-chairs Todd Carpenter (National Information Standards Organization) and John Chodacki (California Digital Library, University of California Office of the President) in developing a national PID strategy for the United States (US) by applying the Group’s RDA National PID Strategies Guide and Checklist and case studies, as well as guidelines published in the March 2024 report titled “Developing a US National PID Strategy”.
With the Common Standard for Machine-actionable Data Management Plans WG, TIGRUS will collaborate with Maria Praetzellis, Associate Director, and others from the California Digital Library (CDL) to advance the application profile developed by the Group as well as the DMPTool created at the CDL within the US.
TIGRUS, launched earlier this year, assists the RDA-US community in tackling data challenges specific to the United States and amplifying results that are achieved through RDA in collaboration efforts with the international RDA community.
