# Record Name and Logo

{% hint style="info" %}
**Why is this important?**

Your resource name is a core descriptive field within FAIRsharing. Using the official name consistently helps researchers and software identify your resource unambiguously and distinguish it from similar resources.

**FAIR:** Supports **Findability** by providing clear, consistent metadata describing your resource.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="success" %}
The record name is **mandatory** for all FAIRsharing records.

The record logo is **optional** for all FAIRsharing records.

*Please also see the general information regarding our* [*minimal curation requirements*](/fairsharing/record-sections-and-fields/how-to-update-a-record.md#minimal-curation-requirements)*.*
{% endhint %}

## **Resource Name**

The full name of the new resource, using the appropriate mixed casing. 

[Abbreviations](/fairsharing/record-sections-and-fields/general-information/abbreviation.md) are added in a different field, so simply write the complete, un-abbreviated name of the resource in this field. 

## Logo

You may also upload a new logo (or replace an existing logo) of the resource you are describing. It must be in png format.
