In case you missed it, DataCite and RSpace collaborated on a couple materials to demystify IGSN IDs and help support their adoption! We hope these are helpful 📖

Samples 101 – Getting started with managing your samples using IGSN IDs and RSpace

https://zenodo.org/records/13669732

This guide aims to provide comprehensive, step-by-step advice to enable institutions to set up and manage IGSN IDs for their material samples. We have compiled summaries and checklists for core concepts, commonly asked questions, and points of confusion, based on our experiences with various user groups.
