ORCID@Pitt Implementing the ORCID ID System at the University of Pittsburgh OSCP Lunch and Learn #20, 5 March 2015 ORCID@Pitt Communications Group

Let’s watch a video! https://vimeo.com/orcidvideos/whatisorcid So what is ORCID?

ORCID: What is it? Open Researcher and Contributor ID 16-digit number that uniquely identifies and represents you and your research “A DOI for you and your research” http://orcid.org/0000-0002-8109-3979 A way for researchers to identify themselves A way for researchers to connect with their research “A hub connecting the research landscape”

Researcher benefits of ORCID Credit where credit is due Makes it easier for others to find your work and attribute it to you Common name? Name changes? Name variations? No problem! Portable: Your ORCID ID goes with you wherever you go

Researcher benefits Save time, save keystrokes Minimizes time spent entering data Helps when submitting for publication Helps when applying for grants Compliance

Researcher benefits All the cool kids have one! Most widely adopted, cross-platform identifier Publishers: ACS, APA, Nature, PLoS, Springer, Wiley, and more Funders: National Institutes of Health, Autism Speaks More “global” than other researcher ID systems Populate local systems to support networking, collaboration, and reporting

Institutional benefits of ORCID More easily showcase scholarly output By department By school By university/institution Populate local systems to support networking, collaboration, and reporting Automate administrative reporting

Why are we doing this? All of the above Ongoing effort to put ourselves in scholarly spaces To facilitate faculty research efforts To facilitate university assessment and compliance needs To understand and be beneficial to the life cycle of research

ORCID as an organization Nonprofit, community-driven effort to create and maintain an international system of researcher IDs Governance structure No data buying and selling No restrictions Works with all possible publishers and funding agencies Trusted parties Trusted parties have to meet ORCID’s standards User can allow or refuse to share data with ORCID’s trusted parties

Data and privacy Information in an ORCID profile is non-sensitive Profile data is available from other sources Users can set certain information to private—including their IDs Users can provide trusted parties with access to their information

ORCID@Pitt implementation project Pilot project with the Swanson School of Engineering Faculty will register with ORCID to create their IDs Pitt will become a trusted party Facilitates research needs and connectivity Facilitates assessment and compliance Registration done through a web-based application Registrant logs in with Pitt credentials Registration fields prepopulate with information from CDS

Future plans Eventual rollout to all Pitt faculty, postdocs, and graduate students School by school, department by department

Implementation and communication timeline FY 15 strategic option January-April 2015 ORCID web application development Communications and outreach planning April-May 2015 Web app finalized Trusted party status SSOE pilot project July 2015 School of Medicine residents School of Dental Medicine residents August 2015 New faculty orientation New faculty orientation—Health Sciences Fall 2015 Rollout to additional schools & depts.
