Description - a brief synopsis, abstract or summary of what the learning resource is about: 

Identifiers are very important as a means to make research data more FAIR (Findable Accessible Interoperable Reusable). This quick reference guide briefly describes why, when, where and how to acquire a digital object identifier (DOI) for research data.    The guide is targeted to Earth Science researchers, but should be useful for other researchers and their support staff as well.  It is part of the EarthCub How-to Series that is designed to provide targeted, practical lessons on making research data FAIR.
