Getting started at Crossref - 16 April 2026

This session is intended for members who have recently joined and are still getting familiar with Crossref processes. We’ll cover how to register content, maintain accurate metadata, understand key membership obligations, and address basic billing questions. — Who and what is Crossref? We envision a prosperous and reusable open network of relationships connecting research organizations, people, things, and actions, a scholarly record that the global community can build on forever for the benefit of society. We’re a not-for-profit membership organization that exists to make scholarly communications better. We rally the community; tag and share metadata; run an open infrastructure; play with technology; and make tools and services—all to help put research in context. It’s as simple—and as complicated—as that. Our mission: Crossref makes research objects easy to find, cite, link, assess, and reuse.
