In 2025, ROR deprecated a schema version, launched a new affiliation matching strategy, worked with national and international groups on community metadata curation, supported new users of and use cases for ROR, devoted our time to key research information initiatives, and did much, much more.
Learn how ROR IDs can help track organizational partnerships in this deep dive into work that Metadata Game Changers did with the EarthScope Consortium to add identifiers to DataCite DOI metadata for geophysical datasets.
We are delighted to announce the launch of a new matching strategy in the ROR API to help you match complex affiliation text strings to ROR IDs at scale.
John Lewis, Data Operations Manager at Cambridge University Press, tells us why and how Cambridge uses ROR in this latest installment of our short case study series.
