STM Integrity Hub

Paper mill and duplicate submission signals, checked at intake.

IntegrationYour own subscriptionstm-assoc.org

Signals from the STM Integrity Hub, the industry's shared service for spotting paper mill activity and duplicate submissions across publishers.

What PeerPath does with it

Submissions are checked as they arrive, and anything the Hub flags is surfaced to your editorial office before a manuscript reaches an editor.

Where it sits in the workflow

At intake, before anyone spends time on it. This is the earliest possible place to catch a problem.

Setting it up

1Join the STM Integrity Hub through STM.
2Tell PeerPath support you want submissions checked.
3Checks begin running on new submissions.

Whether it is right for you

Worth it if
  • You publish in a field where paper mills are active
  • Your integrity policy asks for a check on every submission, not on suspicion
Probably not if
  • Text overlap is your main concern. That is iThenticate or Compilatio.
