“We want to use ORCIDs to simplify the
life of Oxford’s researchers for working
with institutional systems and
publishers’ systems by re-using already
available information for publication
data management and reporting. The
motto is: Input once – re-use often.”

Libraries, Univ Oxford

“AGU is implementing ORCIDs in our
member records, editorial databases,
and papers. Having the ability to
uniquely identify scientists helps the
society, editors, authors, and members
in many ways, from improving
efficiency to providing services and
support.”

“Where possible, it is also
recommended that contributors
be uniquely identifiable, and data
uniquely attributable, through
identifiers which are persistent,
non-proprietary, open and
interoperable (e.g. through
leveraging existing sustainable
initiatives such as ORCID for
contributor identifiers and
DataCite for data identifiers).”

19. To date, over 18,000 records have been created by univerities
on behalf of their researchers. The claim rate is ~36%.
ORCID is a researcher-driven tool. Researchers must use the
identifier as they publish/apply/upload/onboard for prospective
disambiguation to be realized.
When creating records, we need to think carefully about how
to engage researchers and ensure they take ownership of and
use their ORCID iD.
It may be that facilitating record creation and then providing
linking tools will be more effective than a bulk create process.
