Fwd: Springer will not mandate ORCID
by Subbiah Arunachalam 12 Jan '16

12 Jan '16

A note from Elsevier "Elsevier is a founding sponsor of ORCID <http://www.orcid.org/> and helped to fund the initiative through donations and loans. We have also contributed significant staff time towards its launch. We expect to integrate ORCIDs into many of our products and services, including Scopus <http://www.scopus.com/home.url> (www.scopus.com) the world's largest abstract and citation database of peer-reviewed literature. Initially researchers will be able to link their Scopus author profiles with their ORCID records, saving them time when setting up their ORCID profiles and allowing Scopus to automatically keep their ORCID bibliography up to date. Next year, we hope to begin incorporating ORCID data into the Scopus author profiling process to increase the accuracy of the Scopus profiles and automatically propagate work that researchers do to clean up their ORCID profiles. ORCID data will be added to our SciVal products, enabling increased interoperability with your own data. We are also planning to integrate ORCIDs into the manuscript submission process; this will save authors time when going through the submission process, and enable us to automatically update their bibliographies when articles are published." https://www.elsevier.com/authors-update/story/innovation-in-publishing/new-… On Mon, Jan 11, 2016 at 9:47 PM, Subbiah Arunachalam < subbiah.arunachalam(a)gmail.com> wrote: Springer Nature would continue to “encourage —but not require— ORCID IDs from authors of papers published in their 3000 journals." -- Arun http://orcid.org/0000-0002-4398-4658 http://www.researcherid.com/rid/B-9925-2009

Eleven publishers including PLOS, AAAS, IEEE, EMBO Press, eLife, The Royal Society, and the American Geophysical Union have committed to requiring ORCID iDs in the publishing process for their journals and invite other publishers to do the same.

Something terrible happened at American Libraries
by Subbiah Arunachalam 07 Jan '16

07 Jan '16

Friends: Please see how some editors in cahoot with commercial publishers distort articles written by scholars and go to the extent of injecting text from publishers into the main text of papers written by researchers. They even said that the authors and the publishers are partners in the work! And when the authors ask them to retract, the editors of the concerned journal refuse to do that. < http://stewartvarner.com/2016/01/04/um-about-that-american-libraries-articl… >. This episode can very well form the subject of an editorial in Current Science.
