Get involved - Crossref
It takes a village. Crossref only works as long as the scholarly research community wants to work together globally, across all disciplines, for integrity and openness of the scientific record. Our community includes tens of thousands of organisations and systems in over 160 countries. Over 24,000 organisations create identifiers for metadata records that describe and locate their research. They share them through Crossref so that they don’t have to duplicate the information for the many thousands who consume and use it downstream throughout the research ecosystem.
