20. Similarity Check – Проверка на заимствования
Our Similarity Check service offers publishers with a way to actively
engage in efforts to prevent plagiarism.
Members are provided with access to Turnitin’s powerful text
comparison tool, iThenticate. This allows them to compare their own
documents against the largest comparison database of scientific,
technical and medical content in the world.
Similarity Check members contribute their own published content
into iThenticate’s database of full-text literature.
21. How it works
• Upload a document to iThenticate
• A similarity report is produced
• Compare side-by-side
• Editor makes a decision about
whether the similarity detected is
legitimate or if further investigation is
required
• When members publish new content,
they provide a link to their full-text
which Turnitin use to index the item
and add it into their database

So to summarise: Crossref is not just about DOIs! We are not defined by a particular service but by how we fit into the scholarly community as a whole.
We work with a diverse group of members and affiliated organizations.
The largest group of these is publishers and they come in all shapes and sizes - commercial, society, gov’t, uni.
We offer a wide array of services to ensure that scholarly research metadata is registered, linked, and distributed. When members register their content with us, we collect both bibliographic and non-bibliographic metadata. We process it so that connections can be made between publications, people, organizations, and other associated outputs. We preserve the metadata we receive for the scholarly record. We also make it available across a range of interfaces and formats so that the community can use it and build tools with it. We will be going through our various services and the ways in which metadata is used in more depth throughout today.
All of this content has metadata that is available to search.
This metadata is used more widely than many realise from publishers, funding bodies, indexing and discovery services and educational institutions to name but a few. The uses continue to grow year on year, especially as we expand the content types and related metadata registered with Crossref.
Why do publishers join Crossref:
To help get their content discovered
Show people where their content is located and update that if/when the content moves
Drive more traffic to publications
Turn references into hyperlinks
Find out who is using their content
Participate in other collaborative services
What content types can you register with Crossref?
Probably a more diverse list than you would expect. Our largest type is journal articles, with books fastest growing content type
Our newest type is posted content or preprints, which although still small is a rapidly growing area.
Our membership is really growing outside the US and Western Europe which is where our first members came from. We’re seeing a new type of audience with different needs and we need to have conversations to figure out what those needs and how we can meet them. Increased collaboration with OJS is one of those ways as is increased outreach efforts, such as events like these, to these countries to speak to members face-to-face.
In the last 2 years we have had over 3,500 new members join from around the world. The largest areas in terms of growth of new members are in the Asia-Pacific and Eastern Europe, with nearly half of all new members coming from these regions.
Non-profit = 1103 (nearly one 3rd)
Small publishers (with 50 DOI’s registered or less) = 1602 (around half) or 2075 with 100 or less. (Updated Jan 2018)
That’s a lot of metadata being deposited.
Enough about us, let’s talk about you!
Update on the Ambassador program, introduce each other and tell us what you’re working on and where they are from etc.
Is Arley going to join the session and definitely be an ambassador?
Crossref is not just about DOIs! We are not defined by a particular service but by how we fit into the scholarly community as a whole.
More in-person events - Events, more globally diverse locations in order to better engage with our members Strengthening links with broader community - diversifying our board and community platform, Ambassador Program.
Development new tech and services - such as our upcoming new Metadata Manager to improve the process of registering metadata with us, and our new Event Data service which tracks and displays interactions the way interactions with scholarly research occur online, outside of publisher platforms.
We will be going into more depth with new developments in the works as we continue through our agenda today.
Reference linking means hyperlinking to Crossref DOIs when you create citation lists.Obligatory for journal content and encouraged for all others.
This makes it possible for readers to follow a DOI link from the reference list of a published work to the location of the full-text document on a member’s publishing platform, building a network infrastructure that enhances scholarly communications on the web.
Persistent links enhance scholarly communications. Reference linking offers important benefits:
Reciprocity: Publishers’ content is linked together and more discoverable because all members link their references.
Discoverability: Research travels further when everyone links their references. Because persistent identifier links don’t break if implemented correctly, they will always lead readers to the content they’re looking for. When the DOI’s are displayed, anyone can copy and share them.
This will enable better tracking of where and when people are talking about and sharing scholarly content, not only in other articles but more widely for example on social media.
Best Practise:
• New members should start reference linking within 18 months of joining Crossref.
• References should be linked in journal back files as well as current journal articles.
• Link references in non-journal content types such as books and conference proceedings as well.
• Make sure the links references conform to the DOI display guidelines.
• Consider reference linking as just one of the many relationship types that can be deposited with metadata.
The inverse of reference linking is Cited-By.
Cited-by lets members show authors and readers what other Crossref content is citing their content. It’s a little like reference linking in reverse and lets your readers navigate from your content to the content that is citing it.
There are many online citation indexing services and databases but what is different about Cited-by is that it lets our members display the Cited-by links on their content on their own website in any way they wish.
This benefits the readers of the content because they can get a sense of how often the content has been cited and can easily click the links to go to the citing content. How often something is cited can also be useful information for publishers, authors, research institutions and funders.
Number of cited by links and other fun stats: https://data.crossref.org/reports/statusReport.html
Publishers retrieve metadata records of publications that cite their content. This allows for the display of citations on cited content so readers can see that the content they’re reading is being cited. In this example you can see a Japanese paper published in Taylor and Francis’ Journal of Nuclear Science and Technology citing Swedish research from the same journal.

Why is it important to update content?
Readers need to know that they can trust that they can use the research
Publishers and journals are the authority on this
Not bad/negative to update works - it helps to maintain the scholarly record - this is an important job for publishers to do
After it’s published content changes quite frequently and readers need to know. It could be an update or a correction which are quite common but more retractions have been reported and sometimes articles need to be withdrawn.
Publishers needed an easy way to communicate those changes to the readers. We are a membership association of publishers, publishers asked us to develop a solution. So in 2012 after a lengthy pilot we launched CrossMark launched.
This is an example of a CrossMark with no updates.
The document is current.It displays a link to the publisher maintained version which in this case is current.
Below you can see the additional publication information.
Similarly Check is a service that helps editors prevent plagiarism. To do this, our members are given access to Turnitin powerful text comparison tool, called iThenticate, so that they can compare their own manuscripts against a large database of full-text academic content.
While there are several plagiarism screening tools available, using iThenticate as a Similarity Check member is unique as it creates a symbiotic relationship between content-owners and Turnitin. Similarity Check members enjoy cost-effective use of iThenticate because they contribute their own published content into Turnitin’s database of full-text literature. This means that as the number of Similarity Check members grow, so too does the size of the content database powering iThenticate. More content in the database, means greater peace of mind for editors looking to determine a manuscript’s originality.
Turnitin also provide Similarity Check members with access to additional features in iThenticate, such as enhanced text-matches within the document viewer. And with access to Turnitin’s dedicated Similarity Check support team, our members always have a direct line to Turnitin in order to discuss any iThenticate technical or billing queries.
If you’re a Sim Check member, this is how the service works.
Over 1,300 participating Crossref members

Event Data is a new service that we launched in Beta earlier this year. It a records of each time we find a link to a piece of research online, outside of publisher platforms. We are not looking for citations on publisher sites.
And in the scholarly community, we know that sometimes these things are all connected. They have some kind of relationship with each other. For example, a Tweet includes a link to an article, or a blog post cites an article, or a Crossref DOI contains a link in it’s metadata to another DOI, perhaps one from DataCite for example.
Well, these relationships are what we are collecting in Event Data. Each red arrow you see here represents a relationship between two things, and we call each of these individual relationships an Event. So Event Data is a record of the relationships, or the links, to and between research.
These are all the places we’re were gathering data from, at this point: Twitter, Wikipedia, Blogs, Reddit and the Web. We are also able to capture the links between datasets and content items as they are added into the metadata deposited with DataCite and Crossref.
Luckily, once a publisher registers content with us, we have a way of keeping track of it. Using an item’s Crossref DOI, we are able to find out when it has been saved, shared, liked, referenced or commented in all these places, and we will continue to look for new places where things like articles and datasets are being referenced. So this will grow over time.
How do we get the data? It’s a pipeline. Data comes from sources likes the ones I mentioned, we process it and curate Events based on a schema and then provide those Events and all the information about how we processed the data to anyone via API. The end-user Event Data service is an API, not a user interface, so Event Data is best suitable for machine-use, or for humans who really enjoy JSON.
We believe in the principles of Open Data, so everything we provide in our service will tagged with a license that is conformant with the principles laid out in the Open Definition. Currently we have data that is either CC0 or that we can made available without restriction but in the future, we will also accept data from any source that can provide it under a conformant licence. And of course, we do also have terms of use.
This year we will also be launching the ‘Community at Crossref’. This is an open, online space for members where they can start a discussion (or get a question answered) by the Crossref team or by another Crossref member. It will provide scope for members to discuss in their own local languages with others working in similar settings, share tips and advice, hear about upcoming news from Crossref and more widely in the industry and could provide scope for participation in beta-testing or other ways to contribute more to developments at Crossref and give us your feedback.
For great information on how to deposit, maintain and retrieve metadata from us, information on our services, with technical explanations and examples, you can visit our support centre at support.crossref.org. You can also submit requests for any specific queries if you cannot find the answer to your query in our documentation.
We are also in the process of re-vamping our Member Center to include more support features such as help with billing and membership queries. This will be a place where you can access all the tools and services you use via a single log-in, consolidating the support service and making making interactions with the Crossref team and getting answers to your queries less onerous and confusing.
