We have studied the energy of the core levels in different families of cuprate superconductors as a function of temperature and doping. We confirm earlier results that showed a shift towards lower binding energy with increased hole doping. As a new result, we find a shift to lower binding energy on crossing the superconducting phase transition. We discuss, how the screening can be related to the electronic gap present in the superconducting state.
