Orcid: Why, What, How? ORCID: WHY, WHAT, HOW? BOSTON LIBRARY CONSORTIUM MEETING, JULY 25, 2017 ALICE MEADOWS ORCID.ORG/0000-0003-2161-3781 1 Why Identifiers Matter The why, what, and how of ORCID, a universal PID for researchers NAMES ARE MESSY! WHAT IS A PERSISTENT IDENTIFIER? A persistent identifier is a long-lasting reference to a document, file, web page, or other object… [It] is usually used in the context of digital objects that are accessible over the Internet. Typically, such an identifier is not only persistent but actionable: you can plug it into a web browser and be taken to the identified source. PIDS FOR PEOPLE, PLACES, & THINGS PIDS ARE PART OF RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE “PLUMBING” PIDS ENABLE INTEROPERABILITY PUBLISHER EMPLOYER CONNECT COLLECT FUNDER ORCID’s vision is a world where all who participate in research, scholarship, and innovation are uniquely identified and connected to their contributions and affiliations across time, disciplines, and borders. WHAT IS ORCID? • A persistent identifier for researchers (ORCID iD) • A Registry of those identifiers • A set of standard procedures for connecting researchers to their affiliations and activities • A committed community building connectors • An international-scale open research effort TOP 10 BENEFITS FOR RESEARCHERS 1. Reliably and easily connects you with your contributions and affiliations 2. Alleviates mistaken identity 3. Saves you time – “enter once, re-use often” 4. Improves recognition for you and your research outputs 5. Increases discoverability of your research outputs 6. You own and control your record, managing what information is connected and how it is shared 7. Enables you to comply with organizations that require ORCID iDs 8. Many systems you already use are connected with ORCID 9. Free to register and use 10. Enables you to play your part in making the Internet better! ORCID FOR RESEARCHERS Two simple steps: 1. Register for an iD 2. Use the iD when • Publishing articles, datasets • Registering for meetings • Performing peer review • Applying for grants • Using university resources • Adding email signatures, web pages, CVs and more 1.

ORCID REGISTRY CONNECTIONS Two models: 1. Connect via a vendor system • Manuscript submission/publication • Document/data repositories • Profile systems • CRIS systems 2. Develop a custom connection VENDOR CONNECTIONS Publishing CRIS Systems • eJournal Press • Converis • Editorial Manager • Elements • Open Journal Systems • IRMA • ScholarOne • Pivot • PlumX Document / data repositories • Pure • DSpace • Vivo • ePrints • Hydra/Fedora Find more: https://members.orcid.org/orcid-enabled- systems CUSTOM INTEGRATIONS Via the ORCID API • Fine-tuned control and permissions • Customized buttons, user flows, & user feedback • Test and troubleshoot with ORCID Community Team Case examples: https://members.orcid.org/resources Code examples: https://members.orcid.org/api/resources/code- examples DESIGNING TOUCHPOINTS Look for natural fits: • Your sign in – why not link your iD? • Your account settings/user profile • Submission (of any type) • Form fills: pre-fill from your record! • Registration: for conference or meeting • Reporting: Link your iD to get started link to customized URL MAKING OUR DREAM A REALITY (1) Imagine if researchers could sign into their manuscript submission system using their ORCID credentials… And their iD was then automatically included in their article’s metadata… And that information was used to automatically update their ORCID record with the DOI for the published article… Then imagine that information flowing back into your systems AND all other ORCID-embedded systems the researcher uses… SINGLE SIGN-IN WITH ORCID IN MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSION ORCID AUTO- UPDATE • Enables researchers to authorize automatic updates to their ORCID record • Currently used by Crossref and DataCite • Crossref: during submission process • 2016: 150,000 records, 300,000 works updated • DataCite: independent of submission process • 2016: 25,000 records, 50,000 works updated http://ands.org.au/newsletters/share_issue18.pdf HOW AUTO-UPDATE WORKS • Researchers sign up for an ORCID iD • Authenticate their iD when prompted • During submission (Crossref) • During sign-up (DataCite) • Authorize Crossref/DataCite to read/update record • One time only authorization • Select preferred visibility setting for works http://ands.org.au/newsletters/share_issue18.pdf MAKING OUR DREAM A REALITY (2) Imagine if researchers could sign into ORCID using their institutional credentials… And at the same time give their institution permission to read and update their ORCID record… And what if their institution could then immediately connect their affiliation to their ORCID record…? INSTITUTIONAL CONNECT • Benefits for users • One less password to remember • Authoritative institutional affiliation on their ORCID record • Their record will continue to be updated by their institution • More time making contributions, less time managing them • Benefits for institutions • Enables them to validate their researchers’ affiliation with the institution • Only need request permission once to read/update researcher records • Benefits for community • More trusted and authoritative data available for everyone! INSTITUTIONAL CONNECT OPTIONS 1. ORCID initiated • Researcher sets up institutional sign-in functionality • ORCID prompts researcher to connect her/his ORCID iD to institution • Institution collects iD and connects affiliation information to record 2. Institution initiated • Institution uses ORCID Create-on-Demand process to collect ORCID iDs • Institutions asserts researcher’s affiliation to her/his ORCID record through custom integration 3. CRIS system initiated • Researcher connects ORCID iD to institution’s CRIS system • CRIS system asserts researcher’s affiliation to her/his ORCID record 1. ORCID INITIATED WORKFLOW 2. CREATE ON DEMAND 3. VENDOR INITIATED • Affiliation pushed (and updated) from the CRIS system • Institution connect notification is displayed to users signing in with university credentials, with redirect to CRIS system • Pure • Converis • Symplectic Elements • VIVO http://ands.org.au/newsletters/share_issue18.pdf Who Benefits from ORCID? Embedding validated ORCID iDs in all the systems that researchers use enables those iDs, and the (validated) information connected with them, to flow easily throughout the research infrastructure ORCID’S COLLECT AND CONNECT PROGRAM With hundreds of our members globally building ORCID identifiers into their systems, as well as some funders and publishers now requiring ORCID iDs, researchers are increasingly likely to encounter ORCID in their day-to-day life. We developed the Collect and Connect program to streamline the integration process and foster a shared user experience. This ensures researchers and our members understand what ORCID is and why and how to engage. http://orcid.org/content/collect-connect COLLECT & CONNECT GOALS • Clarify goals and expectations across sectors • Standardize and improve the user experience • Build understanding and trust in connections between ORCID and other identifiers • Increase efficiency and quality of integrations NOTE: this image is much larger, so used crop tool to move it around and position in the frame here. • Achieve the ORCID vision

    Montana Tech Library Digital Commons @ Montana Tech Graduate Theses & Non-Theses Student Scholarship Fall 2019 Book Self-Publishing Best Practices Erica Jansma Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.mtech.edu/grad_rsch Part of the Communication Commons Book Self-Publishing Best Practices by Erica Jansma A project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of M.S. Technical Communication Montana Tech 2019 ii Abstract I have taken a manuscript through the book publishing process to produce a camera-ready print book and e-book. This includes copyediting, designing layout templates, laying out the document in InDesign, and producing an index. My research is focused on the best practices and standards for publishing. Lessons learned from my research and experience include layout best practices, particularly linespacing and alignment guidelines, as well as the limitations and capabilities of InDesign, particularly its endnote functionality. Based on the results of this project, I can recommend self-publishers to understand the software and distribution platforms prior to publishing a book to ensure the required specifications are met to avoid complications later in the process. This document provides details on many of the software, distribution, and design options available for self-publishers to consider. Keywords: self-publishing, publishing, books, ebooks, book design, layout iii Dedication I dedicate this project to both of my grandmothers. I grew up watching you work hard, sacrifice, trust, and love with everything you have; it was beautiful; you are beautiful; and I hope I can model your example with a fraction of your grace and fruitfulness. Thank you for loving me so well.

  • Market Power in the Academic Publishing Industry
    Market Power in the Academic Publishing Industry What is an Academic Journal? • A serial publication containing recent academic papers in a certain field. • The main method for communicating the results of recent research in the academic community. Why is Market Power important to think about? • Commercial academic journal publishers use market power to artificially inflate subscription prices. • This practice drains the resources of libraries, to the detriment of the public. How Does Academic Publishing Work? • Author writes paper and submits to journal. • Paper is evaluated by peer reviewers (other researchers in the field). • If accepted, the paper is published. • Libraries pay for subscriptions to the journal. The market does not serve the interests of the public • Universities are forced to “double-pay”. 1. The university funds research 2. The results of the research are given away for free to journal publishers 3. The university library must pay to get the research back in the form of journals Subscription Prices are Outrageous • The highest-priced journals are those in the fields of science, technology, and medicine (or STM fields). • Since 1985, the average price of a journal has risen more than 215 percent—four times the average rate of inflation. • This rise in prices, combined with the CA budget crisis, has caused UC Berkeley’s library to cancel many subscriptions, threatening the library’s reputation. A Comparison Why are prices so high? Commercial publishers use market power to charge inflated prices. Why do commercial publishers have market power? • They control the most prestigious, high- quality journals in many fields. • Demand is highly inelastic for high-quality journals.

  • Researcher ID/Publons – 2019 Instructions
    Researcher ID/Publons – 2019 Instructions ResearcherID is has now been integrated into the Publons platform: https://publons.com/account/login/. Publons is similar to researcher ID and is a platform which records, verifies, and showcases peer review contributions of researchers. Publons information integrates with Web of Science or records imported from ORCID, EndNote or manual uploads and allows you to track citations to your research outputs that are indexed in Web of Science. Please note that publications that have been manually entered into your Publons from journals outside of Web of Science will not track your citation metrics. Your Account Existing Account If you already have an account for ResearcherID, or Web of Science, you can login at https://publons.com/account/login/ using the same username and password. The publications you previously added into ResearcherID have automatically be added into your Publons account. Create a New Account If you do not already have a ResearcherID, create a Publons account here: https://publons.com/account/register/. You will receive a ResearcherID overnight from Publons that you will be able to use to attach to your publications in Web of Science. Adding Publications Once logged into your account you can load your publications by importing them from Web of Science, ORCID account, EndNote Library or manually using identifiers such as DOI numbers. (Note that citation metrics won't be tracked for records that do not appear in Web of Science). Loading Web of Science publications Select “Publications” under My Records then select “Import Publications” Publons will automatically search Web of Science when you select “Import Publications” for publications that match the email addresses and publishing names you listed in your profile.

    Measure Your Research Impact: Author Impact Indices & Other Tools Open Access Week 2017 – Theme: “Open in Order To…” October 25, 2017 About this session We will explore the importance of academic reputation, explaining your research to a wider audience, measuring the impact of your activities related to spreading the word about your publications, and what you can do to enhance yours. Defining Impact “… the beneficial application of research to achieve social, economic, environmental and/or cultural outcomes…. … impact in the academic domain, which is seen more as an indicator of the intrinsic quality of the research on scholarly or academic measures” Australian Research Quality Framework, 2006 a host of social networking platforms designed specifically for scholars abound Author Identification and Measuring Impact Authorship and researcher ID Establishing a unique author/researcher identity is an important step to improving your research visibility and impact. There are a variety of options for creating a unique identity, with ORCID being the latest development. ORCID is well supported by many publishers. ORCID is a central registry of unique identifiers for individual researchers and an open and transparent linking mechanism between ORCID and other current author ID schemes which includes: •Researcher ID - linked to Thomson Reuter's Web of Knowledge platform •My Citations - Google Scholar •Author identifier - Scopus •arXiv – arXiv author identifiers ORCiD® iDs are unique researcher identifiers designed to provide a transparent method for linking researchers and contributors to their activities and outputs. arXiv allows you to link your ORCID iD with your arXiv account. Organizational names suffer from similar ambiguities to those described for researcher names.
