AuthorCarpentry promotes the use of ORID
by Subbiah Arunachalam 29 Jun '17

29 Jun '17

Received from: "Peretsman-Clement, Gail" <gperetsm(a)caltech.edu> Date: Wed, 28 Jun 2017 14:20:58 +0000 Dear Colleagues, In the AuthorCarpentry training initiative (https://authorcarpentry.githu b.io/), establishing scholarly identity with ORCiD is a core learning objective. Our curriculum relies on ORCiD numbers, publication lists, and profiles as critical infrastructure to integrate with the various elements of the scholarly web. We are teaching AuthorCarpentry at Caltech, at the CODATA-RDA Summer School in Research Data Science, at the Force11 Scholarly Communication Institute, and as a tutorial at professional conferences such as the Artificial Intelligence Conference Feb 2017. AuthorCarpentry is a not-for-profit initiative supported by researchers and librarians. We believe authorship training is best sustained in the commons to ensure persistence and sustainability, earn authors' trust, and reduce conflicts of interest around author choices. In this 'attention economy' where authors can be predators' bait, authors appreciated neutral, publisher-independent professional support that has no skin in the game. We welcome contributions to, and wide reuse of, our training materials! Please feel free to add to our list at https://github.com/AuthorCarpe ntry/planning/issues or email us at authorcarpentry(a)caltech.library.edu Best wishes, Gail Gail P.

ORCID for Indian researchers
by Subbiah Arunachalam 28 Jun '17

28 Jun '17

Friends: About a year ago, we wrote a paper on the importance of adopting ORCID iD by every researcher. The paper appeared in the *National Medical Journal of India*, (Vol.29, 2016). Here is the link: *http://dst.sciencecentral.in/16/ <http://dst.sciencecentral.in/16/>* Every librarian knows how important it is to be able to link authors to their publications correctly. Hardly there will be a librarian who has not faced a problem in attributing a publication to the right Mr S K Gupta or Ms SK Banerjee. Those of you who work with Scopus or Web of Science would have faced this kind of problem often. A persistent unique name identifier such as ORCID iD is the only solution. It is for this reason, we suggest that academic and research librarians should spearhead the movement to promote widespread adoption of ORCID in India. We invite those who have already implemented ORCID in their institutions to share their experience in this Forum. If almost all citizens of a vast country like India, numbering about 1.3 billion, could be assigned Aadhaar numbers within a short span of time, it should not be difficult for all Indian researchers to adopt ORCID iD.
