NARCIS: linking CRIS’s and OAR’s in the Netherlands NARCIS: linking CRIS’s and OAR’s in the Netherlands. A matter of standards and identifiers Elly Dijk Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences KNAW Research Information CRIS/OA Workshop, Rome, 10 May 2010
Royal netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences Department of Research Information Mission: National focal point of research information
Two worlds of CRIS and OAR in the Netherlands Dutch portal NARCIS Outline Two worlds of CRIS and OAR in the Netherlands Dutch portal NARCIS Digital Author Identifier – DAI Future Conclusions
Academic Information Domain Publications Repositories CRIS/CERIF E-Research + software Other institutional systems, like financial information domain
Ideal situation: all AID well connected
Existing situation in the Netherlands
Current Research Information System - CRIS Every university and the Academy: CRIS called Metis Content Researchers: research data, workplaces Research institutions: profiles and addresses Research Programmes and projects Bibliographical information on research results
National CRIS: Dutch Research database Sources: University and Academy systems: Metis Other research institutions National Research Council Content: Research programmes and projects Research institutions Researchers + expertise Datamodel: CERIF: developed by EuroCRIS

Open Access repositories: publications and e-data 27 institutions with Open Access publication repositories: including the 14 universities, Academy, National Research Council 219,000 OA publications 1 institution with an e-data repository: DANS =Data Archiving and Networked Services 14, 500 datasets in the field of Humanities and Social Sciences
Existing situation in the Netherlands
Digital Author Identifier - DAI Digital Author Identifier is a unique number Assigned to every author who has been appointed to a position at a university or reserach institute Avoids name ambiguity and variants In the Nederlands: national number For example: info:eu-repo/dai/nl/071792279
Assigning DAI’s METIS (CRIS) as source
Joining CRIS, OAR and e-data Cooperation Technical aspects: Interoperability: Using OAI-PMH protocol Exchange formats: DC as a minimum MODS (DAI) in DIDL container CERIF based XML for CRIS
DAI in MODS
Because researchers want to have publication lists: Future plans Because researchers want to have publication lists: harvest the not-open access (restricted) publications in repositories Harvest the bibliographical information of the Metis systems
Seperate worlds of CRIS and OAR Conclusion Seperate worlds of CRIS and OAR In NARCIS these worlds come together by harvesting Digital Author Identifiers interlink the information Need of standards and appointments
