What is our role in preserving the integrity of the scholarly record?

The integrity of the scholarly record is an essential aspect of research integrity. Every initiative and service that we have launched since our founding has been focused on documenting and clarifying the scholarly record in an open, machine-actionable and scalable form. All of this has been done to make it easier for the community to assess the trustworthiness of scholarly outputs. Now that the scholarly record itself has evolved beyond the published outputs at the end of the research process – to include both the elements of that process and its aftermath – preserving its integrity poses new challenges that we strive to meet.

2022 Board Election

I’m pleased to share the 2022 board election slate. Crossref’s Nominating Committee received 40 submissions from members worldwide to fill five open board seats. We maintain a balance of eight large member seats and eight small member seats. A member’s size is determined based on the membership fee tier they pay. We look at how our total revenue is generated across the membership tiers and split it down the middle. Like last year, about half of our revenue came from members in the tiers $0 - $1,650, and the other half came from members in tiers $3,900 - $50,000.

Accessibility for Crossref DOI Links: Call for comments on proposed new guidelines

Our entire community – members, metadata users, service providers, community organizations and researchers – create and/or use DOIs in some way so making them more accessible is a worthy and overdue effort. For the first time in five years and only the second time ever, we are recommending some changes to our DOI display guidelines (the changes aren’t really for display but more on that below). We don’t take such changes lightly, because we know it means updating established workflows.

Documentation

Manage users and folders

This section is for Similarity Check account administrators who are integrating iThenticate v2 with their Manuscript Submission System (MTS)

No need to create users with an integration with an MTS

If you are using iThenticate through an integration with an MTS, then you do not need to set up any other users on your new iThenticate account. This is because all the submissions from your MTS will be made by the API key you’ve set, rather than individual users. The only person who will need credentials for the iThenticate account is the administrator.

No need to create folders with an integration with an MTS

If you previously used iThenticate v1, you might be used to creating folders in iThenticate to integrate with your MTS. However, you no longer need to create folders. Everything will be handled through the integration panel in your MTS.
