Japan Link Center(JaLC)
supports permanent linking to academic information by DOI
JaLC is the only Japanese organization authorized by the DOI Foundation as a Registration Agency (RA) for DOI.
Administered jointly by academic institutions in Japan.
DOIs are assigned to various digital content including scholarly papers, books, research data, and e-learning, and are managed along with the content location (URL).
To activate academic research, we require to be able to access academic contents of high quality and reliable on the internet, anytime, anyone, anywhere you want to do.
In the field of academic contents, for example, academic thesis, publications, they assign number the “DOI” (Digital Object Identifier), that is a global Identifier, to contents, and manage the “DOI” with location information of contents, and enable permanent access to them.
JaLC is a system that manages bibliography and location information of electronic academic contents.
The board member includes main contents holders such as National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), National Institute of Informatics (NII), National Diet Library (NDL) and Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST).
JaLC DOI can only be registered by Japanese corporations and organizations in Japan.Please refer to the link below for details regarding other Registration Agencies.
