Retracted research—published work that is withdrawn, removed, or otherwise invalidated from the scientific and scholarly record—can be, and often is, inadvertently propagated within the digital scholarly record through citations. In June 2024, the NISO Communication of Retractions, Removals, and Expressions of Concern (CREC) Working Group published its Recommended Practice (RP), a community-driven solution that aims to ensure that retraction metadata is effectively shared across the publishing and discovery ecosystem. In this video series, members of the NISO CREC Working Group discussed how the publication of the CREC Recommended Practice will benefit their workflows, improve the management of their retraction metadata, and the value of the RP to publishers and systems suppliers.
