Abstract
Abstract: A curriculum vitae (CV) allows you to showcase
yourself and your academic and professional achievements
in a concise and effective way. Creating an online CV,
presenting who you are to your academic and professional
peers. Creating and maintaining your online CV is an
essential tool in enhancing your research and publications
visibility. Enhancing the visibility empowers the researchers
to gain recognition in their fields and beyond, communicate
their research to a wider audience and grow their networks.
In this presentation one of the newest online CV. platform
named Wikiscientist will be introduced.

Author Identification Systems
Author name disambiguation and the
association of scholarly works with the
correct author have long been a problem for
those wishing to develop a comprehensive
list of publications for individuals.

The Challenge at Hand
• Inconsistent name formats caused by the authors themselves or
editors
• Various transliteration systems, especially where different non-
Roman alphabet names result in the same transliterated Roman
alphabet name.
• Legal name changes
• Cultural variants in the position of surnames
• Compound or hyphenated names
• The sheer volume of scholarly materials
• Highly similar names sometimes even doing similar work at the
same institution.
• The large number of common names, especially certain surnames in
many cultures.

Why should I care about my online
presence?
• To make your research and teaching activities
known
• To increase the chance of publications getting cited
• To correct attribution, names and affiliations
• To make sure that a much as possible is counted in
research assessments
• To increase the chance of new contacts for research
cooperation
• To increase the chance of funding
• To serve society better

the public imagination in 2014?

Why online CV.?
Increased access to
publications leads to higher
visibility and thus increased
impact.

Including hyperlinks in your CV
can make a big difference.

What is ORCID ?
The ORCID
• Unique, persistent
identifier for researchers
& scholars
• Free to researchers
• Can be used throughout
one’s career, across
professional activities,
disciplines, nations &
languages
• Embedded into workflows
& metadata
• API enables
interoperability between
siloed systems
The ORCID Organization
• Non-profit, non-
proprietary, open, and
community-driven
• Global, interdisciplinary
• Supported by the
membership of
organizations using the
ORCID API
• Funding
organizations
• Professional societies
• Universities &
research institutes
• Publishers

EBSCO Information Services joins
ORCID
IPSWICH, Mass. — October 22, 2013 — EBSCO
Information Services (EBSCO) announces it is now a
member of Open Researcher and Contributor ID (ORCID),
an open, non-profit, community-driven effort to create and
maintain a registry of unique and persistent researcher
identifiers. ORCID works with the community to embed
these identifiers in research workflows and systems to
connect researchers with their scholarly activities and
contributions.

Why get an ORCID identifier?
Benefits of getting an ORCID iD include:
• Ensuring researchers get credit for their work
• Reducing time to identify scholarly output (see “Publisher integration,” below)
• Enabling scholars to keep track of and report on their work with funders, publishers and
institutions
• Repurposing data for use in CV generation, citation repositories, BU Profiles, annual reports,
faculty web-sites, and other systems (see “Grant submission integration,” below)
• Tying individuals to their scholarly work should make finding academic papers easier and more
accurate
Publisher integration: Elsevier, Thomson Reuters, Nature and other major publishers have begun integrating ORCID
iDs into the manuscript submission process, and embedding ORCID identifiers across their scientific and scholarly
research ecosystem. This will save authors time during submission, and enable automatic updating of author
bibliographies when articles are published. That information can be ingested into BU systems, at each scholar’s
discretion.
Grant submission integration: NIH, NSF and other federal agencies are planning to integrate ORCID iDs into the
ScienCV platform, for linking researchers, their grants, and their scientific output. The US federal government has been
working to create a fed-wide profile system to streamline the grants and contract application process and reduce the
data entry burden for investigators, and ORCID holds promise to be part of the solution.

The 36 faces of Jens Åge Smærup Sørensen: dipthongs, accents,
contractions and transliterations produce dozens of variations in a
hypothetical name. By claiming a unique ORCID, researchers can avoid
fragmentation of identity and identity ambiguity. (Slide by Mogens
Sandfær of DEFF)
