Scholarly publishers are committed to maintaining the integrity of the published Version of Record. With the rise of alternative copies available through Institutional Repositories and other platforms, it’s crucial that repositories are promptly notified when important updates—such as retractions or corrections—are made to the official record.

To address this, the International Association of STM Publishers (STM) is leading an initiative titled the Content-update Signaling and Alerting Protocol (CUSAP). This project aims to keep repositories and the wider research community informed of any critical changes to published literature.

We’re seeking direct feedback from Institutional Repositories and other potential users who would benefit from this alert system. Your insights will shape the future of CUSAP and enhance its value to the scholarly community.

Take our brief survey by 22 November to share your insights.
