| 577 | +## Versioning |
| 578 | + |
| 579 | +After publishing, you can publish new versions of datasets if you wish to update the files/data. A version number will be appended to the end of the citation. |
| 580 | + |
| 581 | +**Note:** If you only need to update metadata, you can amend the metadata without creating a new version. Simply change the metadata in the curation directory, then select **Amend** after selecting **Prepare to Publish / Version / Amend** (See step 2). |
| 582 | + |
| 583 | +### 1. Make Changes in Curation Directory |
| 584 | + |
| 585 | + |
| 586 | + |
| 587 | +Remove files from a dataset (Experiment, Simulation, Mission, or anything with a DOI) in the **Curation Directory** by removing their relationship to the dataset or the category/collection within the dataset. |
| 588 | + |
| 589 | + |
| 590 | + |
| 591 | +Add new files by assigning them to a dataset or a category/collection within a dataset. |
| 592 | + |
| 593 | +For **Project Type Other**, new files do not need to be assigned to a specific dataset because entire project is one dataset. Make sure the new files are in the **Curation Directory** so they can be selected for the new version in step 2. |
| 594 | + |
| 595 | +### 2. Prepare to Version |
| 596 | + |
| 597 | + |
| 598 | + |
| 599 | +Select **Prepare to Publish / Amend / Version** in the **Publication Preview** and you will be given the choice to publish new datasets to your project, amend metadata, or version existing published datasets. Select **Version** to continue. |
| 600 | + |
| 601 | +**Note:** If you only need to update metadata, select **Amend**. |
| 602 | + |
| 603 | + |
| 604 | + |
| 605 | +Select each published dataset that has been updated and continue. You can version multiple datasets at once. Datasets that have not been published for the first time cannot be selected. |
| 606 | + |
| 607 | +For **Project Type Other**, select each file to be included in the new version. |
| 608 | + |
| 609 | +### 3. Explain Changes & Publish |
| 610 | + |
| 611 | + |
| 612 | + |
| 613 | +You will be asked to explain the changes made to this new version. This will help someone viewing your data to understand its history, so be thorough in your explanation. |
| 614 | + |
| 615 | + |
| 616 | + |
| 617 | +Once published, a viewer will be able to toggle between the versions. |
