Following Andreas Czerniak's presentation "PID landscape in Germany: an insight into the project's surveys" at the Autumn 2024 membership meeting in Paris last Nov, the PID Monitor portal has advanced from a beta to a pre-release version. This PID-Network Germany project output aims to track the progress in the adoption of different kinds of persistent identifiers in Germany and beyond. Besides tracking among others PIDs for authors, organisations, projects, instruments and research data, the PID Monitor also includes a section devoted to Open Access publication services and research information systems which monitors the growth of CRIS entries in the DRIS.
A follow-up PID-Network Germany project presentation is expected to feature on the programme for the Spring 2025 membership meeting in Leuven.
