With increased concerns about the integrity of the scholarly record and rising numbers of retractions, it is more important than ever that researchers understand when they are about to read an article that’s been retracted or has received material updates. This sessions brings together several initiatives that aim to improve the visibility of retraction information for readers: The NISO CREC (Communication of Retractions, Removals, and Expressions of Concern) Working Group, the STM group on Content-update Signaling and Alerting Protocol (CUSAP), GetFTR and Crossref with their collaboration around Retraction Watch Errata and Retraction information, and ORCID. Panelists will discuss the benefits and drawbacks of various approaches to improve ‘retraction visibility’ and help researchers avoid problematic research. The conversation will also highlight how the GetFTR browser extension enables researchers to see retracted content alongside entitlement signals and how the ORCID author identifier can support research integrity and combat fraud.
