    Towards a CERIF-ORCID API adaptor: a progress report
    (euroCRIS, 2016-06-09)

    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.

    ORCID Update: Projects Old and New
    (euroCRIS, 2017-11-22)
    The presentation provides an update on the progress of the ORCID initiative and the projects it's involved in. With over 4m live identifiers to date, ORCID is constantly aiming to expand its coverage by ensuring interoperability with different systems and stakeholders in the research community. The nearly completed THOR project has achieved such interoperability with DataCite, making it possible for datasets to be part of researchers' ORCID profiles. Work is also ongoing in the areas of Federated Identity Management, with an increasing number of integrations, and of OrgIDs, with a presently open proposal for comment by the community. New projects are being shortly launched that will provide continuity to the ongoing work such as STFC-led FREYA and the ORCID Reducing Burden and Improving Transparency (ORBIT) initiative in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health.
