Sir, This has reference to your mail Lis-Forum dt.21st Oct.2016 on Study of predatory journals. Please my following opinions on this topic. with regards,D.V.Patwardhan "Predatory journals have emerged in OA environment. The authors have to pay for publishing their papers. As the publishers get payment to publish papers and wish lure authors to choose their medium, many times stringent quality restrictions not imposed on authors' output. If predatory journals publish quality articles then it is great contribution for scholarly or else they simply create pollution in scientific world."

Re: [LIS-Forum] Adopting ORCID as a unique identifier will benefit all involved in scholarly communication

Many research institutions and university are using ORCID data for research activity monitoring and also for uploading research works of researchers in their institutional repository. In Khalifa University, we have ORCID Institutional membership and make use of ORCID data through ORCID API. Please see our libguide http://libguides.kustar.ac.ae/orcid Individual ORCiD is free and users can import their data from SCOPUS, web fof Science, Google Scholar and many other reosurces. Having an ORCID ID would definitely help researchers in many ways - Will make your work discoverable by others - Connects your research to you throughout your career, no matter how your name appears in publication - Distinguishes you from other researchers with similar names - Minimizes the time you spend filling out forms when submitting research or applying for grants - Is required by many major journal publishers and funders University libraries can take the lead for Institutional ORCID implementation. *Nikesh Narayanan *I E-System Librarian I Khalifa University of Science, Technology and Research <http://www.kustar.ac.ae/> PO Box 127788, Abu Dhabi, UAE Mobile : +971507097346 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

Reg: Adopting ORCID as a unique identifier will benefit all involved in scholarly communication
by Siva Shankar Kimidi 20 Oct '16

20 Oct '16

Adopting ORCID as a unique identifier will benefit all involved in scholarly communication by Subbiah Arunachalam, Muthu Madhan ORCID, the Open Researcher and Contributor ID, is a nonprofit, community-driven effort to create and maintain a registry of unique researcher identifiers and a transparent method of linking research activities and outputs to these identifiers. Together with other persistent identifiers for scholarly works such as digital object identifiers (DOIs) and identifiers for organizations, ORCID makes research more discoverable. It helps ensure that one's grants, publications and outputs are correctly attributed. It helps the research community not just in aggregating publications, but in every stage of research, viz. publishing, reviewing, profiling, metrics, accessing and archiving. Funding agencies in Austria, Australia, Denmark, Portugal, Sweden and the UK, and the world's leading scholarly publishers and associations have integrated their systems with ORCID registry. Among the BRICS countries, China and South Africa are adopting ORCID avidly. India is yet to make a beginning. http://nmji.in/temp/NatlMedJIndia000-1116292_030602.pdf -- Regards Siva Shankar K -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
