The Astrophysics Source Code Library (ASCL, ascl.net), established in 1999, is a citable online registry of source codes used in research that are available for download; the ASCL's main purpose is to improve the transparency, reproducibility, and falsifiability of research. In 2017, improvements to the resource included real-time data backup for submissions and newly-published entries, improved cross-matching of research papers with software entries in ADS, and expansion of preferred citation information for the software in the ASCL.
