Crossref is an official DOI registration firm that functions as a cooperative cross-publisher collaboration to enable accurate and useful citation linking via DOIs (Digital Object Identifiers). A DOI is an identifier that is unique for each content item and it does not change with time.
To run Crossref Reference Linking and Correction on a document:
- Complete Bibliographic Reference processing, including the cleanup and reprocessing of all references that eXtyles did not automatically fix.
- Be sure you have a connection to the Internet.
- Select eXtyles > Advanced Processing > Crossref Reference Linking and Correction.
Crossref Reference Linking and Correction should take approximately 30 seconds for 60 references, and it performs the following tasks:
- Crossref Reference Checking informs you of the number of references that match rather than the number that failed to match. This approach has been taken because the Crossref database is significantly smaller and may result in large numbers of unmatched references.
- Crossref Reference Checking is usually set up with fuzzy matching turned on. In most cases, the results are quite good, but occasionally incorrect results occur. In all cases in which a match is made with fuzzy matching, you will receive a warning that the reference data and the Crossref data do not match.
- Crossref Reference Checking may have been configured for your organization to automatically insert the DOI as a hyperlink in the reference section. This insertion makes it easy to identify which references have been matched on Crossref.
