Abstract

Abstract: A curriculum vitae (CV) allows you to showcase

yourself and your academic and professional achievements

in a concise and effective way. Creating an online CV,

presenting who you are to your academic and professional

peers. Creating and maintaining your online CV is an

essential tool in enhancing your research and publications

visibility. Enhancing the visibility empowers the researchers

to gain recognition in their fields and beyond, communicate

their research to a wider audience and grow their networks.

In this presentation one of the newest online CV. platform

named Wikiscientist will be introduced.

Keywords: Wikiscientist, H-index, Improve citations,

Author Identification Systems

Author name disambiguation and the

association of scholarly works with the

correct author have long been a problem for

those wishing to develop a comprehensive

list of publications for individuals.

The Challenge at Hand

• Inconsistent name formats caused by the authors themselves or

editors

• Various transliteration systems, especially where different non-

Roman alphabet names result in the same transliterated Roman

alphabet name.

• Legal name changes

• Cultural variants in the position of surnames

• Compound or hyphenated names

• The sheer volume of scholarly materials

• Highly similar names sometimes even doing similar work at the

same institution.

• The large number of common names, especially certain surnames in

many cultures. Source: A. B. Wagner, “Author Identification Systems,” Issues in Science and Technology Librarianship, 2009.

Why should I care about my online

presence? • To make your research and teaching activities

known

• To increase the chance of publications getting cited

• To correct attribution, names and affiliations

• To make sure that a much as possible is counted in research assessments

• To increase the chance of new contacts for research cooperation

• To increase the chance of funding

• To serve society better

What is ORCID ?

The ORCID • Unique, persistent

identifier for researchers & scholars

• Free to researchers

• Can be used throughout one’s career, across professional activities, disciplines, nations & languages

• Embedded into workflows & metadata

• API enables interoperability between siloed systems

The ORCID Organization • Non-profit, non-

proprietary, open, and community-driven

• Global, interdisciplinary

• Supported by the membership of organizations using the ORCID API

• Funding organizations

• Professional societies

• Universities & research institutes

• Publishers

EBSCO Information Services joins

ORCID

IPSWICH, Mass. — October 22, 2013 — EBSCO

Information Services (EBSCO) announces it is now a

member of Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID),

an open, non-profit, community-driven effort to create and

maintain a registry of unique and persistent researcher

identifiers. ORCID works with the community to embed

these identifiers in research workflows and systems to

connect researchers with their scholarly activities and

contributions.

Why get an ORCID identifier?

Benefits of getting an ORCID iD include:

• Ensuring researchers get credit for their work

• Reducing time to identify scholarly output (see “Publisher integration,” below)

• Enabling scholars to keep track of and report on their work with funders, publishers and

institutions

• Repurposing data for use in CV generation, citation repositories, BU Profiles, annual reports,

faculty web-sites, and other systems (see “Grant submission integration,” below)

• Tying individuals to their scholarly work should make finding academic papers easier and more

accurate

Publisher integration: Elsevier, Thomson Reuters, Nature and other major publishers have begun integrating ORCID

iDs into the manuscript submission process, and embedding ORCID identifiers across their scientific and scholarly

research ecosystem. This will save authors time during submission, and enable automatic updating of author

bibliographies when articles are published. That information can be ingested into BU systems, at each scholar’s

discretion.

Grant submission integration: NIH, NSF and other federal agencies are planning to integrate ORCID iDs into the

ScienCV platform, for linking researchers, their grants, and their scientific output. The US federal government has been

working to create a fed-wide profile system to streamline the grants and contract application process and reduce the

data entry burden for investigators, and ORCID holds promise to be part of the solution.
