@jakkbl and I are giving a code4lib afternoon workshop March 14 @ Princeton: "Up and running with ARK persistable identifiers".
ARKs (Archival Resource Keys, @arks_org) can serve as stable, trusted refs for information objects (#404sNoMore).
For >2 decades, >8 billion ARKs have been created by >1k orgs — libraries, data centers, archives, museums, publishers, govt agencies, etc.
Why ARKs? How to get started? All are welcome.
