Special focus on
bibliometrics
ORCID in Sweden
National study: ”Author Identifiers and Publication
Databases” (2012)
•
Recommends that ORCID should be the standard used for managing
author identities in SwePub and the publication databases in Sweden
Swedish Research Council (VR)
•
makes ORCID mandatory in the new PRISMA grant application portal
(Q3 2014)
SwePub, national publication database
•
ORCID support for contributors in v. 2 (2014-)
•
ORCID support in SAML2 SSO
SweCRIS, new national CRIS system (Q4 2014)
SWAMID, Swedish Academic Identification
Swedish Research Council –
National Information Architecture
ORCID @ CHALMERS
ORCID institutional membership (2013)
•
•
Creator License, access to Member API
co-ordinated by the library, university mandate
•
batch creation of ORCIDs for one department
Pilot study (2013)
Create & connect service (2014-)
•
•
•
•
developed by the library and the central IT/HR dept, with a
focus on identity infrastructure
ORCIDs stored and managed in the central HR system (PDB)
connected in repository & publication/metrics databases
one-stop solution for all things concerning ORCIDs at
Chalmers
Background for membership
•
•
Reason for membership?
• As participants in the project 2012, we were
following the launch and development of ORCID.
• Interest and positive response from univ & dep
management and researchers, when we presented
ORCID.
• Support for staff that wanted to create ORCID.
• Preparation to support ORCID as part of national
infrastructure.
Support from legal office. Concerns regarding transfer
of personal data outside of EU.
Pilot study (2013)
•
•
•
•
•
•
Department of Space and Geo Sciences, approx. 150
researchers
Initiative from the library and from the head of
department
Object of the pilot was to try out the API and workflows
and to learn about responses from the from researchers
Batch creation of ORCIDs, using the Member API
Mixed result, slow responses in some cases
Conclusions
•
•
early adoption - too early?
creation of ORCIDs should probably be initiated by the individual
researcher in the first phase

Dear Vera Sandberg,
Chalmers University of Technology created an ORCID Account for you.
This account provides you with a unique research identifier (an ORCID iD)
that you can use in your publications and grants, and a place (an ORCID
Record) to list information about your professional research activities.
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO? Within the next 10 days, please review the
information that Chalmers University of Technology entered as a
courtesy on your behalf. Once you have logged in the first time, your
account will become active, and you will have complete control over the
privacy of your record and the information it contains. To review your

Some thoughts
• ORCID is a new infrastructure and is still in
development.
• Very good support from ORCID staff during
implementation.
• ORCID model requires involvement from the
researchers. But: What’s in it for me? We still
need to show practical value for the individual
researcher.
• ORCID should be viewed as a part of an
evolving standardization and improvement for
the management of research information.
