ORCID

    •    Rick Johnson, in charge of digital repository team/tools
    ⁃    Notre Dame received grant to integrate ORCID with Hydra
    •    Bill Ying, ARTStor
    ⁃    SharedShelf and interested in ORCID for SharedShelf professors
    ⁃    Could it all be implemented together
    •    Patricia Hswe, Penn State
    ⁃    Want to integrate ORCID in HydraHead
    •    Karen Estlund, University of Oregon
    ⁃    Interested in hearing how it is being used / will be in Hydra
    •    Tom Johnson, Oregon State University
    ⁃    Keep track of pulse
    •    James Van Mil, University of Cincinnati Libraries
    ⁃    Campus Interested in potential
    •    Christine Rissmeyer, UCSB
    ⁃    How could ORCID be integrated into the
    •    Stacy Konkiel, Data Mgt, Indiana University
    ⁃    Inter-institutional collaboration and shared infrastructure issues
    •    Jeremy Friesen, Notre Dame
    ⁃    Working on Notre Dame grant, https://github.com/ndlib/hydra-orcid_profile/wiki
    ⁃    Wants to hear about user stories and possible future directions
    •    Christen Hedegaard, Royal Library, Denmark
    ⁃    Want to integrate ORCID with IR
    •    Christian Ertmann-Christiansen, Royal Library, Denmark
    ⁃    Partner with ORCID/Hydra integration
    ⁃    ORCID is the main identifier that is being used and want to adopt in Hydra

What is Notre Dame doing for the grant?
    •    Not assuming things everyone is doing it the same way
    •    How to retrieve from ORCIDs and how to share back to ORCID
    •    Proxy assumed for creating ORCIDS for other people (Office of Research creates ORCIDS for people have gotten grants.)
    •    Use Cases
    ⁃    Create and retrieve ORCID IDS in Curate ND
    ⁃    Retreive an existing ORCID
    ⁃    Large Scale creation/assignment of ORCID IDs
    ⁃    Account linking/federating with ORCID as ID account
    ⁃    authenticate via ORCID ID instead of campus ID (useful for people who leave)
    ⁃    Don’t want anyone who creates an ORCID to sign up for IR
    •    First step is authenticating with CAS (campus) ID system
    •    Metadata in ORCID is fairly simple
    ⁃    Easy to push metadata
    ⁃    Records coming in aren’t robust but start allowing for connections
    •    Two major milestones:
    ⁃    Create prototype
    ⁃    Funding a week long developers meeting to jumpstart local concerns / institution specific (Chicago, early-mid March)
    •    Larger ORCID developer meeting May 21 in Chicago

Discussion
    •    Vivo? Chris (Royal Library of Denmark) interested in Vivo and Notre Dame more IR. Several partners have Vivo but will still keep them separate.
    •    Other integrated like SHARE proposal in US to share public data
    •    Some institutions have political issues with assigning ORCIDs to faculty
    •    Disambiguation and duplicate record issues with ORCID
    •    There isn’t a unique identifier for the document in the ORCID record
    •    Hopefully, metadata should be managed in SharedIR not ORCID
    •    Single entry for about metadata would be nice for researchers

User Stories, https://github.com/ndlib/hydra-orcid_profile/wiki
    •    User authenticates, get provisional account in Hydra, authenticate in ORCID, then no longer provisional
    •    Creating an ORCID, requires membership for a certain level of the API, does similar to above but in batch
    ⁃    When we say batch create 50 people, does the name already exist, then disambiguate to the best of ability
    •    Importing ORCID works, to bring from ORCID into repository, identify with a type map and take attributes and maps to corresponding bucket in Fedora, when import look at DOIs and skip over to not add
    ⁃    Hydra Remote identifier gem, creates mapping for requesting a remote identifier
    ⁃    What is the shared identifier to pass back and forth?

Discussion Cont.
    •    How to handle problem of disambiguation for existing ORCID IDs?
    •    What happens when person moves to another institution and how does ORCID know?
    •    Vivo problem to solve problems with Same-As
    •    ORCID should do pattern control?
    •    ORCID ID’s should be transferrable to institutions
    •    Universities are just stewards not owners
    •    Once have ORCID can have Gmail or other links, too
    •    Soft deletes, so things can be resurrected
    •    Cincinnati wants to take info from researcher directory to Hydra. How does ORCID fit in? is it a conduit?
    •    The more places you put it the better

Action Items
    •    Stacy Konkiel give user storie(s) to Jeremy Friesen
    •    Rick Johnson will let people know how to be involve in March Chicago event or give feedback
    •    Rick Johnson will make overview grant document available more widely here (smile) Hydra ORCID Plug-in Grant Proposal
