In this paper the persistent identifiers (PIDs) are introduced as mechanism for implementing FAIRness principles across the National repository of dissertation in Serbia (NaRDuS). The main issue with dissertations is their lack of visibility and source trustworthy. Dissertations are not used to be recognisable with common identifiers that could be apply within journal articles. PIDs are represented as available alternative of more popular, but less accessible, identifiers that could support technical requirements for implementing FAIRness principles.
