- 23. Board motions July 2020 1. That Crossref should proactively lead an effort to explore, with other infrastructure organizations and initiatives, how we can improve the scholarly research ecosystem. Crossref is committed to the collaborative development of open scholarly infrastructure for the benefit of our members and the wider research community. 2. That the exploration referenced in the foregoing resolution should consider a range of options looking at operational, governance, technical, and product and service issues and how the organizations could take advantage of synergies, efficiencies, and opportunities for the benefit of the wider research community by working more closely together. 3. Formed a Strategy Committee to take this forward.
