ROR Community Call Nov 2024 - slides and recording

[Amanda French]

Hi all,

The slides and recording from yesterday's Community Call are now available: https://ror.org/events/2024-11-20-ror-community-call/

Highlights:

• The curation team has been updating domain data, instituting link-checking for URLs in ROR records, and will be focusing on improving coverage of Japanese and Portuguese organizations
• ROR is releasing a small schema update, v2.1, by the end of this year, and will begin work to implement client identification for the ROR API in 2025. Note that version 1 of the ROR API is slated to be deprecated at the end of 2025 in sync with new requirements to have a client ID in order to use existing rate limits.
  
• Notable recent adoptions include the launch of ROR in the Web of Science
  
• Featured integrators from the MESR / OpenAlex Works Magnet (community metadata correction tool) and the US Global Change Information Systemand the US GCIS show off their use of ROR
  

We are also planning our ROR Annual Community Meeting for February 4th and 5th of 2025, so save those dates and keep an eye out for more information.

As always, if you have topics you'd like to discuss or work you'd like to share at an upcoming call, please let us know!

Cheers,

Amanda
