Abstract
This paper describes an experimental implementation of the CERIF API specification being used as an intermediary system to enable the communication of information from the ORCID registry as CERIF XML. This work builds on the strategic partnership between euroCRIS and ORCID, and was enabled by the EC-funded THOR project. The implementation surfaced several issues stemming from the differing data models required, and from constraints specific to ORCID’s position as an international linking infrastructure, such as privacy. The paper summarises the lessons learned from this endeavour, and sets out a clear roadmap and recommendations for the community to come together to implement, expand and sustain this potentially very valuable component of the research information ecosystem.
