Funding is one of the key enablers of the research lifecycle, but has been one of the hardest parts of the scholarly record to identify, describe and connect. This is slowly changing as we have recently reached a very exciting milestone for Crossref’s Grant Linking System (GLS). What makes it remarkable is not only the numbers reached, but where the data comes from. Research funders, who joined Crossref as members, have actively contributed more than 200,000 grants to the Research Nexus (Figure 1).
We are pleased to announce the re-launch of the Crossref Service Providers Program. From today, we are accepting applications from organisations providing tools for metadata registration to Crossref members. Participation in this program is free and the application involves an accreditation process to determine eligibility and the appropriate participation tier.
As a membership organisation, Crossref supports its members to provide rich and complete metadata which facilitates integrity judgements, increases discoverability, linking among scholarly objects and activities, and improves transparency. Service providers are key collaborators in this work because they enable our members to adopt better metadata practices.
Three years ago, we asked our members what they needed from Crossref’s metadata. We received confirmation that we were going in the right direction, as well as some new ideas to explore. This helped set the course for our metadata development work since then, and continues to guide where we’re headed next.
For many years, PubPub has made it possible for communities to assign DOIs to a range of outputs and component Pubs. Knowledge Futures and Crossref are building together to test the limits of what’s possible for high-volume, high-granularity DOI management. That means fast prototypes, real building, and learning through the process.

Setting up your iThenticate 2.0 account MTS integration (admins only)
This section of our documentation is for Similarity Check account administrators who plan to access iThenticate 2.0 through their Manuscript Submission System (MTS).
If you are using iThenticate v1 rather than iThenticate 2.0, take a look at the section for v1 account administrators.
If you intend to use iThenticate 2.0 directly in the browser (and not through an integration with your Manuscript Submission System (MTS) please skip to the section on setting up iThenticate 2.0 for browser users for iThenticate administrators.
Your personal administrator account in iThenticate 2.0
Once Turnitin has enabled iThenticate 2.0 for your organisation, 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 ‘Set up my account’ 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 don’t forget to tick to agree to the terms and conditions. You will then arrive at your new iThenticate 2.0 account.
How do you know if you’re an account administrator?
When you are logged in to iThenticate, what tabs can you see?
If you’re using iThenticate 2.0, 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, you’re not an account administrator, and you can just read the user instructions for iThenticate 2.0 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 2.0 account, you’ll need to reach out to Turnitin’s support to have your password resent to you from Turnitin.
If you’ve already signed into your 2.0 account, but can’t remember your password, you can simply use the Forgot Password link on the login screen of your unique 2.0 website (https://crossref-xxx.turnitin.com, with xxx being your member ID).
