Digital scholarly communications require information that is machine readable

Digital Names Needed

•  Different versions (full name vs. initials)

•  Shared names •  Transliteration •  Accents and other ALT

characters •  Name changes •  Multiple family names

What is ORCID?

ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier (“digital name”) 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

Data Security

•  User opt-in •  User controls access settings •  User can revoke access •  Sensitive data not collected •  Privacy policy (http://orcid.org/privacy-policy) •  External Safe Harbor compliance review

Leveraging existing standards

26 May 2015 orcid.org 7

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

Building trust:

26 May 2015 orcid.org 8

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

•  Engage the community to embed, authenticate, and assert

Researcher Responsibility

26 May 2015 orcid.org 9

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

26 May 2015 orcid.org 10

Over 1.3 million researchers have registered for an ORCID identifier.

Through their actions, ORCID identifiers are associated with: •  2 million unique DOIs •  20 thousand unique educational affiliations •  30 thousand unique employing organizations

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 linked metadata into ORCID record (“auto-update”)

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

•  Over 180,000 articles have been submitted to CrossRef with an associated ORCID iD

•  These will start to flow into the ORCID registry this year

•  Researchers who use their ORCID iD when they publish will not need to manually update their record in ORCID or in connected systems
