2. Creating ORCID Records
ORCID is a researcher-driven system. Researchers must use the
identifier as they publish/apply/upload/onboard for its benefit to be
realized.
When creating records, we need to think carefully about how to
engage researchers and ensure they take ownership of and use
their ORCID iD.
It may be that facilitating record creation and then providing
linking tools will be more effective than a bulk create process.

4. 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 tools
• Ensure that the iD is published with the paper /
dataset / grant / thesis, etc.
• Work with the community to push metadata back
to ORCID record

7. Library Guides
To provide an ongoing resource for
researchers and staff, university libraries
have established ORCID Library Guides
Some examples:
• Texas A&M:

pid=553864&sid=4564757
• Michigan: http://guides.lib.umich.edu/orcid
• UC Dublin: http://libguides.ucd.ie/orcid
