22/01/2015 Jisc-ARMA ORCID Pilot Final Project Meeting

2

• to provide a forum for networking, sharing of experiences and collaboration

• to showcase key achievements of universities who set out to implement ORCID identifiers in systems and workflows as part of the Jisc-ARMA ORCID pilot

• to explore and reflect on themes and findings of the projects, discuss gaps and remaining challenges and agree priorities going forward

• Building on previous work a series of consultations have identified

• Need to develop key shared services and infrastructure and their underpinning standards to support RDM and RIM

• Need for clear advice and guidance with practical tools and frameworks (focussed on HEI’s) to make RDM business as usual within two years

• Vision and Roadmap with key stakeholders nationally and internationally

Research at Risk

7

Supporting adoption and implementation of key standards and addressing sustainability

• Jisc- Casrai UK pilot ((http://jisccasraipilot.jiscinvolve.org/wp/ - now drawing to a close)

• Sustainable approach to Orcid implementation in the UK

• Frameworks e.g. CERIF

Key RIM challenges

8

Joining up people and systems e.g.

• People – RIM Group met last week (well attended by range of organisations, funders, vendors, HEI’s, standards organisations)

• Systems – RCUK-Jisc Overview of System Interoperability Project (OSIP)(consider major interoperability challenges around RC systems and where standards can help – leading to report to RC’s post workshop in Spring)

Key RIM challenges

9

• Systems – RCUK-Jisc Overview of System Interoperability Project (OSIP)

Key RIM challenges

# Provocation

1 Interface between JeS Grant Application System and HEI systems

2 Interface between Researchfish and HEI systems

3 Gateway to Research - and Third Party systems

4 Standardising Non-HEI organisational names in RC systems

5 JeS Student Details and RO Student Information Systems

Pain points / opportunities

# Provocation

a ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID)

b Syntax - CERIF (Common European Research Information Format), Semantic Web (eg VIVO) and JSON (probably the leading options)

c Organisational Name standards - ISNI (International Standard Name Authority) and Ringgold, and many others.  Note CASRAI OrgID group work in this area.

d Open Access metadata standards (eg RIOXX, CASRAI OA reporting initiatives)

Interoperability initiatives

10

• Communicating lessons learned: Verena will talk later about how we will be disseminating results of pilot and how we can build on what has been learnt

• ORCID National Arrangement

• Jisc will now consult to gauge level of interest in an ORCID Group membership (ORCID will outline what this is)

• Interest already building (including via R@R consultation)

• Please contact Verena if you would like to be part of that consultation

• Jisc is considering what other support we can provide post pilot – e.g. technical

• Will now re-convene the ORCID implementation group to look at how this national arrangement might operate and next steps for UK ORCID implementation(Jisc, ARMA, HEFCE, RCUK, UCISA, HESA, SCONUL, RLUK, Wellcome Trust, BL)

Next steps for ORCID adoption
