In an increasingly digital scientific landscape, the permanent and reliable identification of resources, researchers, and research products, linked with research processes, with Persistent Identifiers (PIDs) has become essential. However, with the growing importance of PIDs in everyday research and more and more also in cultural contexts, the requirements for their efficient usability are also increasing. At the same time, users are confronted with a great variety of very different PID systems and implementation possibilities. The planned project "PID Network Germany" therefore aims to establish a network of existing and currently forming actors around the persistent identification of people, organizations, publications, resources and infrastructures in the field of digital communication in science and culture, which promotes the dissemination and connection of PID systems in Germany. The focus will also be on identifying needs andoptimization potential for existing PID systems and embedding them ininternational knowledge graphs. The project findings should lead torecommendations in the order to create a national PID roadmap forGermany.
