Dear friends, As Dr. Gaur pointed out making awareness about the advantages of ORCID among faculty and researchers is the most important step. There are many other integration options for ORCID apart from integrating with Institutional repository software. In our university we use it for the following purposes. 1. Harvest faculty/researchers publications to E-prints (IR) 2. We harvest all information such as publications, previous employment, educational qualifications, funding etc. of faculty members in XML format and use it for multiple purposes such as - Research reporting to external agencies and government - Updating faculty pages in our website - Collect SCOPUS and Researcher ID of a researcher As vijayakumar mentioned, KAUST has also done wonderful implementations using ORCID and this was our main inspiration to start our project. http://repository.kaust.edu.sa/kaust/handle/10754/55692 Please see a presentation uploaded by ORCID Inc. regarding Khalifa University project on ORCID implementation at https://www.slideshare.net/ORCIDSlides/orcid-khalifa-university Best regards Nikesh *Nikesh Narayanan *I Systems & e-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.

Return of real books
by Subbiah Arunachalam 21 May '17

Friend: This one is strictly for book lovers. Many years ago when I was in a mofussil college I had a friend attending a class of two, yes just two students. They were doing B A (English literature). Then he went to a large city college to do his Masters, stopped writing to me after some time and one day suddenly disappeared from the scene. Even when he was an undergrad student his home was full of books - hundreds of them and he was a voracious reader. Eventually he became a bookseller and publisher, when I traced him. I asked him how was his reading going. He said, "I stopped reading books when I started selling them." Most librarians, pardon me, are like my friend. We stopped reading books when we started working in libraries, ordering books, classifying and cataloging them and keeping track of them. Today, a friend in Bombay, a true multitasker of exceptional talent, alerted me to a new book which talks about how print is coming back and is on its way to regaining its original glory thanks to the designers.

Introducing ORCID

---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- From: "Subbiah Arunachalam" <subbiah.arunachalam(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, May 19, 2017 1:28 pm -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Friends: Recently, there has been some discussion on ORCID in this Forum. There is some good news which arrived last evening when the ORCID team and the Board and invitees were having dinner in a crowded restaurant in Stockholm after two days of deliberations on matters of importance to ORCID. *Science* (AAAS) has carried a cover story (reproduced below) on ORCID. All of us at the dinner were happy that ORCID was not only discussed in *Science *but it also made to the cover page. Surely this will prove to be a shot in the arm for ORCID. You may read the full article at, http://science.sciencemag.org/content/356/6339/691 Best wishes. Arun http://orcid.org/0000-0002-4398-4658 http://www.researcherid.com/rid/B-9925-2009

Founded in 1224, this University is the oldest 'state' university in the world. Since 2003, it promotes Open Access to results from scientific research and favors the sharing and growth of scientific knowledge. Under the imprint "FedOA. Federico II Open Access University Press", the CAB (Center for Libraries at "Federico II" University) delivers Open Access to academic articles, books and research data through the institutional repository and the platforms for scientific journals and e-books series. The "Federico II" University of Naples also provides support to international disciplinary repositories, such as RM Open Archive, a very relevant Open Access scholarly repository, which covers the whole range of medieval studies, and now E-LIS, the most important Open Archive for Library and Information Science. e-LIS will continue providing all its services (and some new very soon!). Don't hesitate to contact as elis.repository(a)gmail.com for any doubt or suggestion! And let us not forget that e-LIS will be celebrating its 15th anniversary soon!
