Swiss open-access publisher Frontiers has announced that beginning this month, Frontiers articles will now include CrossMark and FundRef data when applicable. CrossMark lets people know whether or not they are reading the most recent version of a document. The CrossMark logo will appear on all Frontiers articles published after August 24.
By clicking on the CrossMark logo located at the top of the article, readers will discover if there is an update to the article they are reading or if they are reading the most recent version.
FundRef also will be integrated into Frontiers articles on August 24, and it will tell who has funded the research if the funding institution is recognized by FundRef. The logo will appear only on article pages that do have FundRef information available.
Frontiers articles already include a number of metrics including total views, the number of citations, demographics and a summary of the article's social media buzz. The integration of FundRef and CrossMark will enhance the article even more to ensure that the latest research in that field is available.
