Abstract

In August 2023, the national standard for GB/T 42813-2023 Data paper publication metadata was officially released. This standard specifies the content and framework of metadata required for data paper publication, including dataset metadata, data paper metadata, as well as their description methods, extension principles, and methods. It is applicable to the description, preservation, online publishing, and sharing services associated with data papers and their corresponding datasets. The release of this standard marks the first comprehensive agreement at the national level regarding the new mode of data paper publishing, namely the open sharing of scientific data, which has addressed the prior absence of standardized guidance in the field of data publishing. It facilitates data publishing institutions in promptly releasing data papers and their associated data, providing support for the rights and protection of scientific data. The standard holds significant importance in promoting the establishment of an open and shared ecosystem for scientific data. Since its publication, certain data journals or scientific data publishing platforms have begun adopting the elements and definitions specified in the standard, thus engaging in a more extensive practice.
