Connecting Research and Researchers: How ORCID is Facilitating the Interoperable Exchange of Information, presented at the annual meeting of the Society for Scholarly Publishing, 30 May 2014.
ABSTRACT:
The publishing community has been an early and enthusiastic adopter of the work of ORCID, an independent non-profit organization with a twofold mission: to provide an open registry of unique identifiers for researchers, and to work with the scholarly community to ensure that this persistent identifier is embedded in research workflows. ORCID serves as a hub, linking existing identifiers, such as CrossRef and DataCite DOIs, ISNI organizational identifiers, and author identifiers including ResearcherId and ScopusAuthor ID with the ultimate goal of connecting researchers with their contributions. This session will provide an opportunity to learn about the status of ORCID integration into manuscript submission and production systems, into reviewer workflows, into conference systems, and into repositories and evaluation systems. A panel of experts from diverse publishing will provide practical examples and best practices for how the scholarly communications community is using ORCID.

• Common names
• Multiple names/transliterations
• Name changes, esp. for women
3. 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

4. Facilitating interoperable
exchange of information
The ORCID API
enables the
exchange of
information
between systems:
• Less time re-
keying
• Improved data
• Easier
maintenance
• Better sharing
across 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).”

11. • Creating ORCID iDs for:
• 10,000+ grad students
• All postdocs
• All faculty
• Also tying to ETDs &

• Why?
• Having an ORCID iD is
part of your professional
identity as a scholar
• A persistent identifier will
help TAMU track future
career outcomes

14. Suggested Practices for Collection & Display
of ORCID Identifiers
• Add authenticated collection
of ORCID identifiers to your
manuscript submission process.
• NEVER let an author type in an
iD.
• Encourage all authors publishing
in your journal to obtain an
ORCID identifier.
• Ensure that iDs are included in
the XML submitted to CrossRef
and other repositories.
• Display ORCID iDs in publication.

Jisc-ARMA ORCID pilot project – HEI based projects
“In particular, the objectives are:
• to explore the embedding of ORCID iDs in institutional systems and workflows
• to assess costs, benefits and risks of ORCID implementation
• to gather evidence and recommend how to proceed – if appropriate – with
national ORCID membership”
(Retrieved 19/05/2014 from http://orcidpilot.jiscinvolve.org/wp/ )
Aston University
“We intend to embed ORCID IDs into the HR system (CORE) so that new staff
joining the university beyond this project will be required to register for ORCID as
part of the employment process. The implementation plan, training materials and
guidance notes will then be made available for use by other universities using
PURE”
University of York
“Information about research outputs from the University is automatically shared
between Pure and White Rose Research Online, our shared ePrints repository.
Using ORCID to help with this interoperation is a real potential benefit and an
important part of the project”

81. About AGU
• 60,000 members worldwide
• 19 journals; also books
• 11,000 submissions/year from ~60,000 authors
• Fall Meeting >20,000 attendees each year;
20,000 abstracts from 50,000 authors
• 4 different, large people databases all with
duplicates.
82. All Together Now…
• 4 different databases: peer review, member,
abstracts, publisher (Wiley).
• Integrating all into the member database but
dream is seamless user experience
• ORCID to help for 360 degree view of members
(abstracts and papers)
• SSO everywhere
• Pass ID’s of authors to Wiley and back to ORCID
• Recognize reviewers too
83. Timeline

87. Challenges
• So far uptake has been gradual/slow.
Discussing how to accelerate.
• Especially problematic for co-authors (email
sent on submission but need to be more
proactive) and reviewers
• Co-authors of abstracts even more of a
challenge.
