WHAT IS ORCID?
Solving the problem of linking researchers and their professional activities
By creating an international unique and persistent identifier scheme, embedded in works metadata
Supported by a non-profit institution and large buyin from research funders, publishers and academia.
POTENTIAL FOR REPOSITORIES
Highly automated repository deposit
Easier cross-institution information exchange
Store things, not strings
FIRST IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Integrate ORCID lookup with item submission and admin item edit
Store additional ORCID metadata separately from the DSpace metadata scheme
Integrate ORCID functionality into the DSpace batch item spreadsheet editing.
TENTATIVE TIMELINE
May 2014 Show prototype at ORCID meeting
June 2014 Finalization of all deliverables
Dec 2014 Inclusion into DSpace 5.0
