Who wants to know all this?
• Publishers who publish researchers’ work– Accurate author info, dealing with coauthors, generally managing the
peer-review & publishing process
• Institutions that employ researchers– Evaluating performance of research staff, tenure decisions
• Funders who give researchers money– Which PI scientists are getting funded, who are their co-applications, track
which research outputs were produced by a given grant
• Researchers themselves!– Automated CVs, receive credit, save time when submitting manuscripts
to journals– [more stuff, see below]

The connectivity challenge
• Number of authors and other scholarly contributors is increasing
• Number & kinds of works they contribute to is increasing
• Names are ambiguous --> author identification is problematic

The problem with names

‣ “The scholarly record is broken”
‣Reliable attribution of authors and contributors is impossible without unique person-level identifiers
A broken record

What is ORCID?• ORCID = Open Researcher & Contributor ID initiative• International, interdisciplinary organization involving
multiple stakeholders:– Research institutions, libraries,
funding organizations, publishers, intermediares and individualresearchers
• Started in late 2009 to solve the name ambiguity problem in scholarly communication.
• Incorporated as a non-profit with a Board of Directors in August 2010.– http://about.orcid.org/about/what-is-orcid/governance
OA vika 2012
Research Trends / Elsevier Labs Virtual Seminar - The Individual and Scholarly Networks, New York, Jan 22 2013
To support the creation of a permanent, clear and unambiguous record of scholarly communication by enabling reliable attribution of authors and contributors through unique identifiers

ORCID system searches for possible matching profiles
ORCID Research organization workflow
• Create trans-organization record for all scholars and researchers (students)
• Auto-updates for researcher publications, patents, grants, etc.
• Management of Institutional Repository
• Reduced document management workload for researchers
Organiza:on creates ORCID field in their HR system
Researcher logs into ORCID to approve ORCID::HR profile pairing

Benefits to in-the-trenches researchers?
• ORCID by itself does not do much - the value proposition is really integration with other systems
• #1 Integrations by traditional players in research– There is buy-in from stakeholders, so ORCID will become part of workflows
– Researchers will benefit from streamlined interactions, more accurate data, less form-filling <-- save people time

• ORCID by itself does not do much - the value proposition is really integration with other systems
• #2 Integration by new/emerging players in research– New opportunities, innovative stuff happening
– Lots of small-scale, diverse scholarly services and platforms that can benefit from integration with and build on top of ORCID as a platform - the Long Tail?
– Researchers will be able to create new connections with alternative research outputs, expand their network, show impact, get credit for other stuff besides traditional publications
Benefits to in-the-trenches researchers?

• #3 Universal springboard for less Net-savvy academics to “get connected” on the Web and become part of the network– ORCID profile <-- serve as lowest common denominator ?
– Lower barrier of entry if there is a SINGLE base service they can use which• many or most other scholars use too, and
• is supported by the organizations that matter to them in their work (publishers, funders etc.)
• why? more visible so others can more easily find them– read and build on their work and cite them– seek collaborations– career opportunities
