This document discusses CrossMark, a service from CrossRef that helps readers determine the current status and version of scholarly journal articles. CrossMark places a logo on published articles that links to information about corrections, updates, and which version is being maintained by the publisher. The service aims to address library and researcher concerns about version control and tracking post-publication changes for articles across different search tools and formats. CrossMark also has the potential to provide additional publication record information like funding sources and peer review details. An early pilot of the CrossMark service involved 9 publishers and over 36,000 article records.

Editor's Notes
- \n
- \n
- The idea that journals should be published and preserved in amber doesn’t work in a web world.\n
- The way we are communicating corrections to readers is archaic. This is a real photo of a correction notice for a book from a bulletin board!\n
- Retractions are on the rise. \n
- It’s time for the idea of a “final version” of an article to rest in peace.\n

- While most publishers are responsible about notifying readers of changes, they all handle them in a different way. It may not be easy for researchers to find corrections and other changes. \nFor example, in this article from The Royal Society, the correction is noted to the right of the article. \nSalvatore Federico and T. Christian Gasser, “Nonlinear elasticity of biological tissues with statistical fibre orientation,” J. R. Soc. Interface, June 6, 2010 7 (47) 955-966; http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2009.0502\n\n\n\n
- In this article, the correction is noted under the “referred to by” heading below the bibliographic metadata for the article. \nChek Kim Loi, Moyra Sweetnam Evans, “Cultural differences in the organization of research article introductions from the field of educational psychology: English and Chinese,” J. Pragmatics, 42 (10) (2010) 2814–2825, http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.pragma.2010.03.010 \n\n\n

- Which leads to a second problem, which is that there is often more than one version of an article available. Here we have an article from the Journal of Surgical Research which was retracted because it was found to contain plagiarised material. On the publisher’s site it’s flagged pretty clearly as retracted up here in the article title...\n
- If you search for this article in Google Scholar, however, the publisher’s site isn’t the first to appear - in fact it’s the fourth listing\n
- The first result is an information sharing site for doctors where someone has posted the abstract, and here there’s no mention of the retraction....\n
- The second is PubMed, and the retraction has made it on to the Pub Med copy, although it’s not as obvious as it is on the publisher’s site - it’s not part of the article title but a separate link below.\n
- But what if you’d come across the abstract somewhere else? Maybe through CiteULike, where again there’s no mention of the retraction. \n
- <wait for slide to load!> Or there could well be a copy in the author&#x2019;s institutional repository... \nWith all of these options there&#x2019;s a reasonable chance that the reader isn&#x2019;t necessarily going to see the correction or retraction that the publisher has issued. \n
- <wait for slide to load!> Or there could well be a copy in the author&#x2019;s institutional repository... \nWith all of these options there&#x2019;s a reasonable chance that the reader isn&#x2019;t necessarily going to see the correction or retraction that the publisher has issued. \n

- As we have seen the web can host multiple versions an article or other scholarly content. For example, scholarly documents can be found on a journal or aggregator site or on author home page, institutional repository, or subject repository. Some of these documents are the published versions, sometimes called the &#x201C;version of record&#x201D; and some of them may be preprints or other versions. \nThese multiple versions can exist no matter what the access rules are for the documents. They can be open access or by subscription. In either case, CrossMark can help identify updates or other changes. \n\n
- \n
- For example, this paper displayed in Mendeley. \nUse Rachael&#x2019;s examples of a medical paper that has been retracted for this audience. \n<Show examples of multiple copies of the same article from different sources. Then show an example of the article at the publishers&#x2019; site. You can use these examples, or substitute your own.>\nMendeley\n\n
- Is also available in the Directory of Open Access Journals. ...\n
- ..and on the publisher&#x2019;s web site. Even when the publisher allows this kind of distribution, it makes it even more difficult to track down important changes.\n\nCrossMark is a service being introduced by CrossRef (that&#x2019;s the organization that provides Digital Object Identifiers&#x2014;DOIs&#x2014;and allows publishers to link their references together). CrossMark will allow you to quickly identify a published version of a scholarly document and to see if that document has had any updates. \n\n\n \n
- It is being funded by publishers, which means there is no cost to researchers or libraries. \n\nEven after an article or other scholarly content has been published, occasionally further changes may be made. These changes could include\n\n

- Let&#x2019;s look at an example. As I&#x2019;m sure you know, researchers frequently download PDF versions of articles. Quite a long period may elapse before they look at them again. It is possible that a correction or other change could be issued after the researcher downloaded the document. \n\nHere is a fictitious example.\n\nAll I have to do is click on the CrossMark logo and I get a popup box telling me whether this article is up to date. \n\n
- You can easily see that this document has an update&#x2014;-in fact, it has been retracted. I can click the CrossRef DOI to go to the retraction notice. \n\n[click the retraction DOI]\nhttp://dx.doi.org/10.5555/24242424x \n\n
- http://psychoceramics.labs.crossref.org/10.5555-24242424x.html \n\nOf course, a retraction is a rare event, as it should be. In fact, most scholarly articles never have any kind of corrections.\n\n
- http://dx.doi.org/10.1107/S0108767310044892\n\nYou can see that CrossMark logos can appear on both PDFs and HTML documents and as long as the user is connected to the internet, they work the same. \n\n<Click on the slide to bring up a live internet connection, then hover over the CrossMark logo>\n\nOn an HTML page, when you hover over the CrossMark logo, you get a message that tells you to click to get status information and verify authenticity. \n\n<Click on the CrossMark logo>\n\n\n\n
- In this case, you can see that the document is current, and no updates are available. This will be the result most of the time, but it&#x2019;s worth clicking on that logo every time you look at a document to make sure nothing has changed. \n\nDo you see the &#x201C;Record&#x201D; tab of this popup box? \n\n<Click on the record tab>\n\n
- The Record tab gives additional publication record information about the content\nthat help readers evaluate the work. In this example, you can see\noptional data about the content type, the copyright statement, the peer review process, and publication history. \n\n<scroll down>\n\n

- \n
- ...the first of the pilot participants to have CrossMark live was VGTU and you can see CrossMarks on their journal Business Theory and Practice. \n
- The Royal Society has implemented CrossMark on their journal Proceedings B, going back to the start of 2011. \n
- ...and an example I showed earlier - the international union of crystallography who have so far deposited quite a large amount of CrossMark data. This example is showing the CrossMark on a full text article. \nLive PDFs on a sample issue now live on the pilot site too. \n
- CrossMark is running on ten journals on Elsevier&#x2019;s Science Direct. \n
- ...and on two titles from Oxford Journals\n
- CrossMark data will be freely available and machine readable and query-able, so could potentially be used in search results to flag content that has status verification and possible additional information, although this is something that we haven&#x2019;t discussed at any length with the search engines just yet. We have had some conversations with librarians about using CrossMark data to populate link resolvers by pulling back relevant information, and also with other third parties such as bibliographic management systems who might be able to pull status updates into users reference lists and personal libraries. While this screen is a mock-up a major search engine has committed to incorporating CrossMark. \n
- We&#x2019;ve also got marketing materials for the service, with a dedicated CrossMark microsite for publishers, librarians and researchers which launched last week. We will be making a variety of banner ads available to members to help explain CrossMark to your readers and there are also sections for librarians and researchers to explain what CrossMark is and why it&#x2019;s such a valuable tool. \n
