CrossMark Policy (Crossref)
The Journal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences (JBRES) applies the CrossMark logo (a service from Crossref) to its hosted content. CrossMark is a visible signal that your article is part of a publishing system designed for trust, transparency, and long-term reliability. It helps readers confirm whether they are viewing the current, authoritative version of your work.
What is CrossMark?
CrossMark is a Crossref initiative that provides a standard way for readers to locate the authoritative version of a scholarly document. When a reader clicks the CrossMark icon, they can view key status information—such as whether the document is current, or if updates (like corrections) exist.
CrossMark strengthens reader trust. It helps ensure your article remains clearly identifiable as the correct version, especially when shared across platforms, repositories, and citation tools.
How CrossMark Supports Your Publication
Confirms the current version of your article and helps prevent confusion caused by duplicated or outdated copies online.
If a correction or update is ever needed, CrossMark provides a transparent path for readers to see the change clearly.
Works alongside Crossref DOIs to improve discoverability, reliable citations, and long-term accessibility.
A visible indicator that your work is published under best practices expected by the international research community.
CrossMark & Open Access
Open access accelerates knowledge sharing, but articles are often re-shared across multiple platforms. CrossMark helps researchers, librarians, and readers identify the trusted “version of record”. This is especially useful when your article is accessed through institutional repositories, academic social networks, and citation managers.
