Open Journal Systems
Free/Open Source Software (FOSS)
● OJS is downloaded and installed on your server● We (PKP) might never know you exist
● Your installation lives on its own little planet
Online Workflow: Users and Authors
● Case 1: Submitter is Author– Submitter: Alec Smecher (SFU)
– Author: Alec K Smecher (SFUUBC)
We already have discrepancies.
Addressing =/= Identifying.
Online Workflow: Users and Authors
● Case 2: Submitter is Member– Submitter: Alec Smecher
– Author: Editorial Board
Institutional vs. Individual
Online Workflow: Users and Authors
● Case 3: Submitter is Agent– Submitter: Alec Smecher
– Author: Deceased Greek
Workflow and publishing have distinct needs when it comes to identifying people.
Our Approach: Complete Separation
To Review...
● Each OJS installation lives on its own planet● User accounts are not linked to author records● Author records are not disambiguated
...so...
How do we build an author index?
How do we build an author brag page?

Integration
ORCIDs in User Accounts...
...feed Author records...
...facilitating flexible Author/User linkages...
...we know Alec Smecher (SFU) is Alec Smecher (UBC).
...we know that Alec Smecher is not Deceased Greek.
...link my “planet” with the rest of the universe
...permitting ORCID to handle brag pages...
...no more separate empires.
...feeding ORCID with new published content.
