Pubmedia Group Partners with HIPJI to Strengthen DOI Member Assistance

Pubmedia Group, together with UniveID, has established a strategic partnership with the Indonesian Association of Scholarly Publishers (HIPJI) to strengthen assistance services for publishing institutions receiving DOI sponsorship through Pubmedia Group. This collaboration reflects Pubmedia Group's commitment to providing DOI services that go beyond registration and administrative processes by supporting the continuous improvement of metadata quality and scholarly publishing governance.

Under this partnership, HIPJI serves as Pubmedia Group's strategic partner in delivering education, consultation, and technical assistance to DOI members. The assistance covers DOI management, metadata creation and updates, publication page reviews, reference linking, DOI link maintenance, and the implementation of best practices in scholarly publishing.

With HIPJI's support, DOI members sponsored by Pubmedia Group will benefit from more structured guidance and capacity-building programs. This initiative is expected to assist universities, educational institutions, non-profit organizations, government agencies, companies, foundations, and publishing organizations in strengthening editorial competencies and improving the quality of their publication metadata.

Pubmedia Group believes that a DOI is more than just a digital identifier or persistent link for scholarly content. Its value depends on accurate, complete, consistent, and continuously maintained metadata that enables publications to be discovered, cited, verified, tracked, and connected within the global scholarly communication ecosystem.

The collaboration with HIPJI further reinforces Pubmedia Group's service approach, which emphasizes education, sustainability, and long-term quality improvement. DOI members are encouraged not only to register DOIs but also to understand their responsibilities in maintaining high-quality metadata, ensuring publication pages remain accessible, and updating metadata whenever publication information changes.

Through this partnership, Pubmedia Group, UniveID, and HIPJI are committed to building a more professional, credible, standardized, and globally competitive DOI and scholarly metadata ecosystem. This collaboration represents a concrete step toward enhancing the visibility, interoperability, and international impact of scholarly publications from Indonesia and across Asia.
