Plagiarism.
It’s an ugly word that rings alarm bells for many in the world of scientific publishing, especially the authors. Because no-one wants their research to be copied and republished.
But with the increasing numbers of scientific articles submitted every day, how can we improve our ability to spot plagiarism and deal with it?
That’s where CrossCheck comes in.
Created by CrossRef and powered by iThenticate software, it provides publishers with a mechanism for detecting plagiarism in scholarly publications. So we, and many other scholarly publishers, can compare manuscripts against published ones, using the large content repository and the iThenticate software.
You’ve always been able to trust us to publish your work quickly and efficiently, and make it available to the worldwide community. Now you know you have an additional reason to trust us to protect that work, and maintain the integrity of the scientific record for you and for future generations.
So that’s another reason to publish with us. You can hear why others have chosen us as a publisher in this video.
