This document discusses how Elsevier products integrate with ORCID to help researchers build and promote their ORCID profiles throughout the research lifecycle. It provides details on how ORCID profiles are incorporated in Elsevier's publishing, search and discovery, and research intelligence tools. Key points include gathering ORCIDs during manuscript submission, depositing ORCIDs in Crossref metadata, linking Scopus author profiles to ORCIDs, and enabling Pure users to link their profiles and automatically update ORCID records.

ORCID and Elsevier
ORCID provides researchers with a
persistent digital identifier and supports
automated linkages between researchers
and their professional activities ensuring
that their work is recognized.
Elsevier supports ORCID’s mission
through membership, integration with our
products and services, and most
importantly by helping researchers build
and promote their ORCID Profiles.

Scopus Author Profiles ORCID
How are Profiles
created?
• Algorithmically created using peer-
reviewed content included in Scopus
• Enhanced by manual feedback from
Scopus users and researchers
• Individuals register, build and
maintain their own researcher profiles
and include the content they want
Coverage • Every author with a publication
included in the Scopus database
• Anyone who wants to create an
ORCID for themselves
Use cases • Search and discovery
• Comprehensive metrics and insight
• Researchers can manage their own
scholarly identity
• Single source of profile data
Complementarity • Researchers can pre-populate their
ORCID profiles from their Scopus
profiles
• Scopus processes the ORCID public
data file to increase the quality of
Author Profiles
Scopus Author Profiles and ORCIDs
complement each other

Research Intelligence:
Pure Integration with ORCID

20. | 20
Research Information System (CRIS) that
facilitates an evidence-based approach to
institutional:
• research and collaboration strategies
• assessment exercises
• day-to-day business decisions
Aggregates organization's research information from
internal and external sources, and ensures the data
that drives strategic decisions is trusted,
comprehensive and accessible in real time
Versatile centralized system:
• build reports
• carry out performance assessments
• manage researcher profiles
• enable research networking and expertise
discovery
• reducing administrative burden for researchers,
faculty and staff
Globally, there are over 200 Pure customers,
containing more than 160,000 researcher
profiles.
About Pure

21. | 21
• Supports REST, SOAP, web
service API and OAI-PMH
protocols
• Makes researchers
research data management
tasks less burdensome
• For example, all Canadian
researchers have to enter
data in the Canadian
Commons CV Database.
• In Pure, researchers can
create a CCCV XML file
then import to the CCCV
Database, reducing
duplicate data entry.
Pure connects with other critical databases
researchers use

22. | 22
Pure integration with ORCID
As a CRIS, Pure is an authoritative
source of quality data:
• contains trusted and disambiguated
content, in many cases validated by
local staff
• confidence in attribution of content
to individual members of staff:
• Mary Smith is THAT Mary Smith,
not just any Mary Smith
Adding ORCID IDs to the mix then
enables the creation of trusted
relations between ORCID IDs and
DOIs

23. | 23
Released in February
2016:
• Users can link Pure profiles
with their ORCID (or create
an ORCID within this
process)
• Pure then automatically
populates and keeps the
individual’s ORCID record
up-to-date with publication
data from Pure
Pure–ORCID integration capabilities

24. | 24
Pure–ORCID integration: technical details
The export to ORCID includes:
• Other identifiers (e.g. Scopus Author ID,
Researcher ID)
• Organisational affiliation information
• Individual's Pure Portal URL (configurable)
• Research outputs:
• Published (or ePub ahead of print)
• Publicly visible in Pure
• Validation status of record as per the
level chosen by institution’s Pure
Administrator
• Only Personal users (or their Trusted users
in Pure) can set up the export of their
content to ORCID
• In order to make use of this functionality, the
institution must have at least a Basic
ORCID membership

25. | 25
Pure data import
• ORCID IDs can be used as a parameter when searching for
publications to import from Scopus

26. | 26
What’s next?

27. | 27
• Plans to add the ability to
search by ORCID IDs
• Provide the ability for users to
add ORCIDs
• Plans for users to add
ORCIDs to their Mendeley
profiles and import ORCID
profile data
• Automate the pushing of newly
added documents to ORCID
Profiles
