Evolving the preprint evaluation world with Sciety
This post is based on an interview with Sciety team at eLife.
This section is for Similarity Check account administrators using iThenticate v1. You need to follow the steps in this section before you start to set up your users and share the account with your colleagues.
If you are using iThenticate v2 rather than iThenticate v1, there are separate instructions for you.
Not sure if you’re using iThenticate v1 or iThenticate v2? More here.
Once Turnitin has enabled iThenticate v1 for your organization, the main editorial contact provided on your application form will become the iThenticate account administrator. As an administrator, you create and manage the users on your account, and you decide how your organization uses the iThenticate tool.
To start with, you need to login to iThenticate and set your password.
Once you’ve logged in, you will only be able to see the Manage Users tab if you’re an account administrator.
So if you can’t see Manage Users or Users, you’re not an account administrator, and you can skip ahead to the user instructions for iThenticate v1.
Changing your email address or updating your password is the same for admins and other users. There’s more information in the user instructions for iThenticate v1.
