FundRef, or Name That Funder!
This document discusses the FundRef project, which connects scholarly publications to their research funders. It summarizes that: 1) FundRef demonstrated an industry-wide methodology for linking publications to funders by having publishers capture and deposit funder metadata to CrossRef. 2) Over 40 staff from various organizations participated in a successful pilot project to test the FundRef workflow. 3) Requirements were defined for an ongoing Funder Registry to be run by CrossRef, which would coordinate and manage FundRef data and include this data in publication metadata.
