ROR release 1.62

[Amanda French]

Hi all,

There's a new release of the ROR Registry! Release 1.62 adds 417 records and updates 541 records, bringing the total of active, inactive, and withdrawn records in ROR to 114725.

If you missed the most recent Community Call, you can see the slides and recording at https://ror.org/events/2025-03-20-ror-community-call/ 
 
Highlights from the call:

• The curation team has been very busy: volume is now at over 1,000 requests per month! Ongoing projects include adding and updating many Japanese and Portuguese organizations.
  
• Work on client IDs for the ROR API continues; remember that version 1 of the ROR API is slated to be deprecated in 2025.
• Notable recent adoptions we've learned of include DigiCorePro and DergiPark's UDS, while notable forthcoming adoptions include Atypon and OJS 3.5.
  
• Crossref's Martyn Rittman goes over how to use ROR IDs for funder identification in Crossref metadata.
• CHORUS's Tara Packer tells us about CHORUS's work and how CHORUS uses ROR IDs.
  

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
