Connecting the Dots for FAIRness and Impact with ORCID (and Other Persistent Identifiers)

Connecting the Dots_2023 EFS Presentation
Description
ORCID, DOIs, and other persistent identifiers (PIDs) serve as open research infrastructure that can be used in any research and/or faculty Information system to help "connect the dots" between organizations and their affiliated researchers, research outputs, and activities, making it easier to assess impact. When used by all stakeholders, PIDs can make research, and information about researchers, more FAIR: Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. In the United States, the ORCID US Community consortium (administered by LYRASIS) sustains a community of practice for 180+ non-profit ORCID member organizations in the U.S. with a goal of embedding ORCID in multiple platforms and workflows across the research and scholarly communication ecosystem. This panel will provide an overview of ORCID trends and best practices in the U.S., with a focus on case studies from three ORCID US Community member organizations that are actively using ORCID in their expert finder systems. We will hear case studies from Stanford University, where their custom-built Stanford Profiles application uses ORCID to uniquely identify researchers and streamline population of researcher profile information; Oklahoma State University, where they are leveraging the ORCID integration in Symplectic Elements to assert employment and works information to researchers' ORCID records and importing information from ORCID records to reduce administrative burden for keeping local records up to date; and the University of Arizona, where ORCID serves as a data source for populating their custom Knowledge Map (KMap), which collects, connects, extracts, analyzes, and visualizes researcher expertise across the university. Each panelist will also speak about how their institution is planning to leverage ORCID to meet upcoming U.S. federal requirements around research security and data management and sharing.
