Working Together to Preserve the Integrity of the Scholarly Record in a Transparent and Trustworthy Way

With the proliferation of scholarly content, how do researchers know what to trust? There isn't a single source of truth, and many in the community are looking for support and answers. But there's no single solution, and it's down to us as a community to work together to solve this problem. This session brings together different parts of the community to discuss how their organizations are working together to tackle this challenge and ask the audience to highlight any remaining problems that we need to solve together. We'll hear about Crossref's role in collecting and openly disseminating metadata that can be used as "trust signals," STM," support for publishers to preserve scholarly integrity, Web of Science using the rigorous selection as a foundation for trustworthy datasets & metrics, COPE's work bringing together publishers and institutions, and the Korean Council of Science Editors (KCSE)' work with journal editorial boards.

"Transformation, Trust, and Transparency" The pace of change in our industry continues unabated, with seismic shifts in areas such as the dissemination of research, business models, and the nature of the workplace. And yet, while pressure for change has become the new normal, fundamental change has proved more elusive. We invite you to join us in highlighting the Trust and Transparency issues that underlie many of the challenges we face and exploring what it takes to create more meaningful Transformation in scholarly publishing.
