In June 2022, we wrote a blog post âRethinking staff travel, meetings, and eventsâ outlining our new approach to staff travel, meetings, and events with the goal of not going back to ânormalâ after the pandemic. We took into account three key areas:
The environment and climate change Inclusion Work/life balance We are aware that many of our members are also interested in minimizing their impacts on the environment, and we are overdue for an update on meeting our own commitments, so here goes our summary for the year 2023!
Metadata is one of the most important tools needed to communicate with each other about science and scholarship. It tells the story of research that travels throughout systems and subjects and even to future generations. We have metadata for organising and describing content, metadata for provenance and ownership information, and metadata is increasingly used as signals of trust.
Following our panel discussion on the same subject at the ALPSP University Press Redux conference in May 2024, in this post we explore the idea that metadata, once considered important mostly for discoverability, is now a vital element used for evidence and the integrity of the scholarly record.
For the third year in a row, Crossref hosted a roundtable on research integrity prior to the Frankfurt book fair. This year the event looked at Crossmark, our tool to display retractions and other post-publication updates to readers.
Since the start of 2024, we have been carrying out a consultation on Crossmark, gathering feedback and input from a range of members. The roundtable discussion was a chance to check and refine some of the conclusions weâve come to, and gather more suggestions on the way forward.

In our previous blog post in this series, we explained why no metadata matching strategy can return perfect results. Thankfully, however, this does not mean that it’s impossible to know anything about the quality of matching. Indeed, we can (and should!) measure how close (or far) we are from achieving perfection with our matching. Read on to learn how this can be done!
How about we start with a quiz?
Setting up your iThenticate v2 account for use directly in the browser (admins only)
Documentation Menu
Setting up your iThenticate v2 account for use directly in the browser (admins only)
This section is for Similarity Check account administrators only. It explains how administrators need to set up the iThenticate v2 account for their organizations if they are planning to use iThenticate in the browser. You need to follow the steps in this section before you start to set up your users and share the account with your colleagues.
If you are using iThenticate v1 rather than iThenticate v2, take a look at the section for v1 account administrators.
If you intend to use iThenticate v2 through an integration with your Manuscript Submission System (MTS) instead, go to setting up your MTS integration.
Your personal administrator account in iThenticate v2
Once Turnitin has enabled iThenticate v2 for your organization, the main editorial contact provided on your application form will become the iThenticate account administrator.
You will receive an email from Turnitin with a link to set your credentials. The email will look like this:
Click on the blue âSet up my accountâ button at the bottom of the email. This will bring you to a page which looks something like this:
Fill out your username and password, and donât forget to tick to agree to the terms and conditions. You will then arrive at your new iThenticate v2 account.
How do you know if youâre an account administrator?
When you are logged in to iThenticate, what tabs can you see?
If you’re using iThenticate v2, you will only be able to see Users on the menu if you’re an account administrator.
So if you can’t see Manage Users or Users, youâre not an account administrator, and you can just read the user instructions for iThenticate v2 on the Turnitin website.
Updating your email address, username or password in the future
If you need to change your personal email address, username or password in the future, you can find instructions on the Turnitin website.
If you forgot your password and have never signed into your new v2 account, you’ll need to reach out to Crossref’s support to have your password resent to you from Turnitin.
If you’ve already signed into your v2 account, but can’t remember your password, you can simply use the Forgot Password link on the login screen of your unique v2 website (https://crossref-xxx.turnitin.com, with xxx being your member ID).
