Kernel Metadata Declaration — on demand

ISO 26324 asks a DOI Registration Agency to produce a Kernel Metadata Declaration for every DOI it issues. Give any DOI: its public record becomes a record in the Smart Scholars DOI Metadata Format 1.0, checked against every rule, and declared as the Kernel XML.

Reads the DOI's public Crossref record; nothing is stored. Until Smart Scholars is accredited, every Declaration is marked as a draft in the XML itself.

✓ Meets every rule of the format

The record below is complete and every controlled value is a DOI Attribute Value Set 2.3 spelling. The Declaration on the right follows DOIMetadataKernel.xsd element by element.

Everything Smart Scholars runsNine sites, one account. A journal starts at the audit; an author starts at Scholar Shield.

For journals & publishers

Start with the audit — it is free, and it is the gate to everything else.

DOI care

Nine services on one journal profile — each previews first and acts only on your approval.

For authors & researchers

Free to use. Nothing you check is shared with the journal.

For institutions, sponsors & DOI operators
