Digital scholarly communications require information that is machine readable

Algorithms not enough

•  Different versions (full name vs. initials)

•  Shared names •  Transliteration •  ALT characters •  Name changes •  Multiple family names

What is ORCID?

ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes researchers from each other Member-built integrations in key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission support automated linkages between researchers and their professional activities and affiliations, ensuring that works are appropriately attributed and discoverable ORCID serves as a hub enabling machine-readable connections between identifiers for organizations, works, and person IDs

ORCID provides plumbing for research information

Putting together the puzzle: •  Connecting

researchers to research

•  Providing a hub to connect systems

orcid.org 11

Building trust:

orcid.org 12

•  Tools to allow for easy addition of identifiers (for people, places, and things) during publishing, grant application, thesis deposit, etc.

•  …and assertion of connection by trusted organization

Researcher Responsibility

orcid.org 13

To benefit from ORCID, researchers need only do two things: ①  Register ②  Use iD

orcid.org 14

Over 1.4 million researchers have registered!

ORCID responsibility Build the infrastructure: •  Create the tools to allow for easy addition of

ORCID iD during publishing, grant application, thesis deposit, etc.

•  Engage the community to embed connection tools

•  Ensure that the iD is published with the paper / dataset / grant / thesis, etc., and ORCID record is updated

Integration in research systems

Option to update ORCID record

Leveraging existing standards

orcid.org 27

ORCID works collaboratively with the research community to ensure adoption and use of research information standards

The metadata “round trip” enables auto-updates for systems linked to the ORCID registry

Metadata auto-updates

http://orcid.org/blog/2015/01/13/new-webinar-metadata-round-trip

27 July 2015 orcid.org 29

The author can pre-populate submission form fields: preferred name, affiliation, funding

The authenticated iD becomes a part of the paper

Upon publication, the iD is indexed by CrossRef, Scopus, Web of Science, and other services.

Information flows through ORCID to linked platforms

What can Institutions Do?

•  Integrate ORCID iD using authentication •  Collect iD during staff/student onboarding •  Collect iD during thesis submission •  Connect iD to organization •  Update ORCID record •  Connect iD to faculty profile system •  Pull data from ORCID to update local system

How does ORCID work? •  Members build integrations to connect

researchers to new works and affiliations •  Registry allows researchers to connect to

existing works and affiliations (free service)

orcid.org 32

•  Take 30 seconds to register at http://orcid.org/register

•  Free to researchers •  Individual owns the

record and controls privacy settings

•  Works on laptops, tablets, and phones

Connect your ORCID iD to existing works using tools in ORCID interface or in external platforms

Researchers can connect to existing works and push ORCID iD into indexes including Web of Science, Scopus, and Europe PubMedCentral

Updating award information

orcid.org 37

Researchers can connect to existing projects AND can receive updates when grant awarded

Funders can embed ORCID iD during the grant application workflow

ORCID record includes, funder name, grant number, source, source provenance

•  ORCID iDs in research information and profile systems

•  Connect ORCID iDs to repository systems •  Create ORCID records on behalf of

researchers and staff •  Enable ORCID support in third party CRIS

systems or Repositories •  Include ORCID iDs in the publication process •  Grant systems •  Search & Link (i.e. ETDs)
