that helps track the outputs of funded

develop this and other services for
this audience.

3. How do you find who funded the research?

4. What’s in a name?
National Institutes of Health

7. Depositing funding information
• Publishers can take from acknowledgments or ask authors to
provide
• So funders & others can locate and record published
outcomes
• Deposit good quality funding data - funder names and funder
IDs
• Give authors clear instructions and guidance on citing
funders correctly
• Full funder name not project acronym
• Include grant award numbers*
*Grant IDs are forthcoming

14. In summary
• Crossref’s database is the only central source of standardised
funding acknowledgement metadata from publications
• Accuracy of (funding) metadata is critical!
• An increasing number of organizations and projects rely on
this funding data, e.g. to identify content and check
compliance with funder policies
• Get involved and make the funding data from publications
available, accurate and transparent
