Introducing ORCID
• Raise awareness of ORCID• Influence you to register for an ORCID• Encourage you to use your ORCID
What is ORCID?• ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor Identifier
• An ORCID is a 16 digit unique identifier
• It is a researcher ID that is increasingly being adopted around the world by publishers, research organisations and research funding bodies
$
The Back Story• ORCID is an international, not-for-profit initiative (orcid.org)• Provides an open registry of persistent unique identifiers for
researchers • An ORCID is portable and will travel with the researcher throughout
their career, across organisations, institutions and countries• The aim of ORCID is to automate linkages to research objects such as
publications, grants, datasets, patents, and other IDs
orcid.org
Who has an ORCID?The stats..
• 2.3 million ORCID IDs worldwide currently• 33,407 ORCID records associated with .au email addresses• 16,864 ORCID records which had public affiliations (education or employment)
with an Australian institution• 773 ORCIDs affiliated with UON
@Feb-June 2016
What can ORCID do for me?• Connect a researcher to their research activity and outputs • Provide a unique and persistent author/researcher ID• As an ISBN is to a book, an ORCID is to a researcher• Helps you to claim ownership of your work• Assert statements about yourself based on your ORCID, i.e. linking
to, identifying with your ID• Name disambiguation – common and similar names• Over-time will save time and effort as organisations adopt
(integrate into their systems)
Of the more than 6 million authors in a major journal citations and abstracts database, more than two-thirds of them share a last name and single initial with another author.
