Methodology

A collaborative, cross-departmental approach will be taken by the Corporate Web Team and University Online Services Team. Key stakeholders will be identified, ‘needs assessed’ and requirements drawn up. Mapping these requirements to a visual representation will drive policy creation and underpin the technical development.

The decisions around the construction of our identifiers will be informed by best practice and existing guidance from the community.i.e. http://www.cabinetoffice.gov.uk/media/301253/puiblic_sector_uri.pdf and http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/jisc-ie/blog/identifiers/identifiers-quick-reference/
