datacite-metadata-generator

This is a single HTML form which can be used to generate DataCite Metadata Kernel 4.4 XML.

It is the updated version of Marcin Paluch's and metadata generator. Metadata is generated by populating text boxes and selecting values from drop-downs. The results can then be saved to a file. The main goal of this form was to create a tool which does not require any installation, extra libraries, or an application server, just download and go.

The first update (DataCite Version 4.3) was created by Osman Cakir from the IT-Group for the Humanities (ITG) at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. The update for DataCite version 4.4 was created by Christiane Bayer, Andreas Frech and Martin Spenger of Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München. The work is part of the project "eHumanities – interdisziplinär" and is mentioned in the DataCite Best Practice Guide.
