ORCID Executive Update (Sept 11)

ORCID in a nutshell (current strategy):

  • ORCID is a registry of profiles for people involved in research – a profile can be created by the person themselves (self-registry) or by what is termed a Trusted Partner, such as a University or Publisher.
  • The people using the system decide who is and is not a researcher, not the system itself.
  • A self-registered profile, for “John Smith” for example, can state that it is the same ‘John Smith’ in a profile created by a Trusted Partner and vice-versa.
