ORCID is a hub

The ORCID identifier connects researchers with their works (papers, grants, datasets, and more), organizations, and other identifiers. ORCID APIs enable data exchange between research information systems.

“Where possible, it is also recommended that contributors be uniquely identifiable, and data uniquely attributable, through identifiers which are persistent, non-proprietary, open and interoperable (e.g. through leveraging existing sustainable initiatives such as ORCID for contributor identifiers and DataCite for data identifiers).” European Commission H2020 Grantee Guidelines

Funding Policy

①  Integrate data fields for persistent identifiers for people, places, and things into your systems

②  Collect persistent identifiers during transactions (using authenticated login, not typing!) AND use APIs to help autofill forms

③  Incorporate identifiers into published metadata

Adoption “To-Do” List

Integrators Researchers ①  Register for an

ORCID iD

②  Use it when submitting papers, applying for grants, depositing datasets, etc.

Researchers may link to existing projects using ORCID tools

2 October 2014 orcid.org 9

•  Classifications and metadata fields consistent with CASRAI •  Uses FundRef Registry for funder organization list

•  Researchers may use a wizard or enter data

manually

FCT requires grantees to register for ORCID iD and link to organization and works

Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT) is using ORCID as a component of a nation-wide CRIS eco-system, enabling interoperability among multiple research systems including the RCAAP national Open Access repository, the DeGóis CV system, and the Authenticus indexed publications repository

Impact of Implementation

2 October 2014 orcid.org 15

ü Reduce time to complete application through auto-population of form fields

ü Create trans-organization record for all grantees

ü Automatic and verified updates of scholarly record

ü Reduce award reporting burden through auto-population of outputs-related reports

Integration Process

•  Planning Guide: http://support.orcid.org/knowledgebase/articles/321374-timeline-for-creating-orcid-ids-via-the-api

•  API Overview: http://support.orcid.org/knowledgebase/articles/180285-introduction-to-the-orcid-api

Technically, integrating ORCID involves adding <person ID> and <source> fields to data models, mapping to ORCID API, and implementing OAuth and RESTful calls.

Socially, it is critical that researchers are engaged in the process.

“AGU is implementing ORCIDs in our member records, editorial databases, and papers. Having the ability to uniquely identify scientists helps the society, editors, authors, and members in many ways, from improving efficiency to providing services and support.”

“We want to use ORCIDs to simplify the life of Oxford’s researchers for working with institutional systems and publishers’ systems by re-using already available information for publication data management and reporting. The motto is: Input once – re-use often.”   Wolfram Horstmann, Assoc. Director, Bodleian Libraries, University of Oxford http://orcid.org/0000-0001-8673-6104
