Geographically, our goals are to help Sponsors support our members, simplify technical documentation, and work with Ambassadors to better understand our new constituencies. Key activities include multi-language webinars, LIVE educational events, and community. crossref.org for open member-to-member support.
In recent value research, members from emerging countries placed a high importance on this strategic theme.
