Standards

Our standards model allows you to register records for dated and undated standards, as well as families and sets of standards.

When registering a standard, DO:

• include all designators associated with the standard
• include (and keep up to date) the current publication status using the publication_status attribute

Do not:

• update an existing DOI record with a new primary as-published designator - SDOs may opt to register DOIs for an undated standard, or to register DOIs for each version or update (as-published) of a standard.
