+
+* Added higher level function to load RO-Crates from various inputs, 
+`load_rocrate`.
+* Added higher level function to validate RO-Crate and display report with 
+errors and warnings (if any was found), `validate_rocrate`.
+* Defined new checks for RO-Crate validation to ignore system specific
+directories (e.g., `__MACOSX` on macOS).
+* Refactored functions to streamline checks, including `is_rocrate`.
+* Updated `get_entity` so it takes a vector for `id` and `type`, reuses the
+shorter vector (only if the length 1), or errors if vectors have different 
+lengths.
+* Updated `is_rocrate_bag` so it returns a boolean value, indicating the 
+validity of the given RO-Crate bag. Previously, it returned a path to the 
+root of the RO-Crate.
+* Updated `unbag_rocrate` to return the path to RO-Crate root _visibly_.
+* `add_entities()` is deprecated. Use `add_entity()` instead.
+* `load_rocrate_bag()` is deprecated. Use `load_rocrate()` instead. Note that
+validation must be done as a separate step using `validate_rocrate()`.
+* `read_rocrate()` is deprecated. Use `load_rocrate()` instead.
+* `remove_entities()` is deprecated. Use `remove_entity()` instead.
+* `entity(x=)` renamed to `entity(id=)`.

 # rocrateR 0.0.1
