TRANSCRIPT
Connecting the pieces: Using ORCIDs to improve research impact and repositories Mohamed Ba-Essa, Daryl Grenz, Thibaut Lery and J. K. Vijayakumar
ORCID-CASRAI Joint conference
Agenda
Ø About King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) Ø Establishment phases of KAUST Research Repository
Ø Development of repository policies
Ø Repository integra@on with external systems
Ø Research evalua@on workflow
Ø Community engagement: role of the university library
Ø Next steps
Why establishing Research Repository Ø Persistent access to university intellectual assets, including grey literature (e.g., technical reports, conference papers, theses etc.) and research data, in order to preserve and share scienDfic knowledge created at KAUST.
Ø Showcase the intellectual output of KAUST research, development of internaDonal research networks and collaboraDons, support graduate student and post-‐doc recruitment.
Ø Expanding impact of KAUST research, which contributes to increased awareness of and growing presDge for our new and ambiDous university.

Developing Open Access tools
Ø Cover sheet, to provide accuracy in citaDon, clarity about manuscript versions and licenses, and links to the publisher and the repository.
Ø Author addendum, each university research author is advised to
append the KAUST addendum when signing the publicaDon agreement with the publisher.
Ø Waiver form, the university will grant a waiver for open access, upon author request, but author sDll needs to submit to the repository.
Ø Submission methods -‐ Online Submission -‐ Email submission -‐ Auto harves@ng

ORCID IDs within the repository • Added along within contributor names in submission forms or through metadata update.
• Retrieval via Crossref when available along with other metadata (based on DOI). § AddiDonal opDon: search and retrieval via the ORCID public API.
ORCID IDs within the repository • Linked display on item pages and in author browse lists:
• Currently 59% of arDcles and conference papers in the repository have an ORCID for at least one author.
Using the ORCID member API
• Internally developed integraDon using PHP and MySQL.
• Goal: § Provide a simple method for KAUST researchers to create an ORCID ID and populate their ORCID profile with affiliaDon and work informaDon.
• Process: § Emails with custom link requesDng ORCID creaDon or idenDficaDon. Follow-‐up emails to those who did not create an ORCID.
Using the ORCID member API
• Results: § 82% of faculty, 52% of postdocs and 13% of research scienDsts now have ORCID IDs.
§ 78% of those with ORCID IDs have granted permissions to KAUST to add informaDon to their ORCID profile.
• Next steps: § IniDate the same process for current students. § Develop procedure for incoming faculty and students.
Inclusion of sources of research usage metrics • Repository usage staDsDcs derived from Google AnalyDcs.
Inclusion of sources of research usage metrics • Scopus citaDon counts

Analysis of the number of citaDons per publicaDon for various collaboraDon types for 86 InsDtuDons that had significant collaboraDons (generaDng 10 publicaDons or more) with KAUST researchers
Scopus data 2011-‐2013
2 key bibliometrics indicators
• PublicaDons in Top Journal PercenDles • Share of publicaDons that are in the top 10% most cited journals
• Field-‐Weighted CitaDon Impact • The raDo of citaDons received relaDve to the expected world average for the subject field,
publicaDon type and publicaDon year. • Indicator used to balance citaDon differences between scienDfic fields • Index of 1.0 = “World average” • Index of 1.5 = 50% more than the World average • Index of 2.0 = 100% more than the World average

• Value of using citaDon databases in the literature search • Understanding citaDon metrics and tools (h-‐Index, Impact Factor,
Altmetrics etc.) • Role of publicaDons in effecDng insDtuDonal rankings • Understanding researcher profiling (ORCID, Google Scholar etc.) • Benefits of open access and explanaDon of how to use the insDtuDonal
repository • Academic honesty, plagiarism, and the use of similarity checking tools
Benefits to Researchers • Improves their understanding of how to
communicate their research • Helps to have organized scholarly profile and
presence • Guides to navigate in the complex aspects of the
changing scholarly communicaDons landscape • Helps in connecDng the pieces of the research life
cycle InsDtuDonal Benefits
• Enhancing the profile of individual researchers will improve their research impact and the reputaDon of our insDtuDon,
• Helps in research funding, faculty evaluaDons and recruitment.
Feedback
Middle East Outreach PromoDng open access and research service iniDaDves Aimed at professional librarians and the academic community
Special Library AssociaDon Arab Gulf Chapter conferences in 2013 and 2014 American Library AssociaDon’s Sharjah Book Fair conference in 2014 and proposed for 2015.
Future
• More training programs within the university. • More outreach programs in the region. • Promote good pracDces in Research Data Management (RDM). • Services and iniDaDves around RDM. • Increased importance of ReputaDon Management • Evolving scholarly record – transiDon from an arDcle to a
package (of arDcle and associated video, data, sorware methods, other media etc)
