VOOZH | about |
At Crossref, our mission is not only about making research easier to find, cite, link, assess, and reuse. We are constantly widening our horizon to create special programs that focuses on different elements of the Research Nexus vision – a vision that aspires to create a rich, reusable open network of relationships connecting research elements for the benefit of society.
These programs focus on making connections between all kinds of research information, including journal articles, book chapters, grants, and preprints. We want to connect these different elements to make it easier for everyone involved in research to find and understand the information they need. We aim to involve everyone - like researchers, funding organisations, and governments - in building a better, more open network for sharing research.
Explore our programs designed to uphold our Research Nexus vision.
A multi-year effort to make participation more accessible through our fees becoming more equitable, less complex, and rebalanced to ensure they match our mission and future growth.
Our efforts ensuring that research is accurately documented and trustworthy by improving the quality and context of metadata, without directly judging the content itself. It supports the research community by providing reliable signals to assess the integrity of scholarly work.
Metadata matching gives us a more complete picture of the research nexus by automatically discovering missing relationships between various entities within and throughout the scholarly record, from grants to affiliations to funders to titles.
Registering your references with Crossref helps citation linking, creates a more interconnected scholarly network, and improves the discoverability and impact of your research. This is a campaign to encourage more members to take up adding references to their Crossref records.
For one year only (!) Crossref celebrates it’s 25th anniversary with stories and well wishes that highlight all aspects of our community. We also launch the inaugural Metadata Awards showing the efforts our members make in enriching their metadata records to collectively enhance the Research Nexus.
