Ontology interest group
- Discussion on internationalization of the ontology. This is quite straightforward. Labels and annotations are easily extracted via query to a spreadsheet. Translations can be from any language to any other. Resulting assertions are easily added back to enrich the ontology. This will be presented at the conference.
- We have a working understanding of the representation of academic degrees, awards, certifications, and licenses based on conversations with Mathais Brochhausen.
- AEON, the Academic Event Ontology, and ORG, an ontology for organizations, with data from ROR are under active development.

VIVO Scholar task force
- The VSTF is planning to release a beta version of VIVO Scholar during the first week in June. The VIVO Scholar beta is a minimally-viable version that the VSTF is making available for the community to explore. New functionality will be added by the VIVO Scholar Task Force in the coming months.
- VIVO Scholar is an optional add-on to your existing VIVO stack. VIVO Scholar does not replace the current VIVO stack; it’s a lightweight, responsive, customizable display with enhanced search features.
- VIVO Scholar requires a VIVO implementation and Scholars Discovery, the middleware that consumes VIVO data and makes it available for display in a front-end and in API endpoints.
- The VIVO Scholar Task Force invites the community to download VIVO Scholar and try loading the test data set. We are looking for contributors to help us add functionality and improve VIVO Scholar to create a final version.
Strategic communication task force
- The Strategic Communication Task Force will share the Strategic Communication Plan with the Leadership Group in the 5/26 meeting.
- The SCTF has been working on a proposal (mockup) for minimum changes on the VIVO web (vivoweb.org) to show it a little renewed and with some updated content.
- Beginning in June, the task force will transition to an interest group.
