ORCID-CASRAI Joint conference

Agenda  

Ø  About  King  Abdullah  University  of  Science  and  Technology  (KAUST)    Ø  Establishment  phases  of  KAUST  Research  Repository  

Ø  Development  of  repository  policies  

Ø  Repository  integra@on  with  external  systems    

Ø  Research  evalua@on  workflow  

Ø  Community  engagement:  role  of  the  university  library  

Ø  Next  steps  

 

Our  inten@on  is  to  create  an  enduring  model  for  advanced  

educa@on  and  scien@fic  research.  

From  planning  to  execu@on  

December  2010,  first  commencement  ceremony  

Where  is  their  work???  

Share  Point  to  manage  research  output  

Why  establishing  Research  Repository    Ø Persistent  access  to  university  intellectual  assets,  including  grey  literature  (e.g.,  technical  reports,  conference  papers,  theses  etc.)  and  research  data,  in  order  to  preserve  and  share  scienDfic  knowledge  created  at  KAUST.  

Ø Showcase  the  intellectual  output  of  KAUST  research,  development  of  internaDonal  research  networks  and  collaboraDons,  support  graduate  student  and  post-­‐doc  recruitment.  

Ø Expanding  impact  of  KAUST  research,  which  contributes  to  increased  awareness  of  and  growing  presDge  for  our  new  and  ambiDous  university.

KAUST Open Access policy

Effective Date: June 30, 2014

Developing  Open  Access  tools    

Ø  Cover  sheet,  to  provide  accuracy  in  citaDon,  clarity  about  manuscript  versions  and  licenses,  and  links  to  the  publisher  and  the  repository.  

 Ø  Author  addendum,  each  university  research  author  is  advised  to  

append  the  KAUST  addendum  when  signing  the  publicaDon  agreement  with  the  publisher.  

Ø  Waiver  form,  the  university  will  grant  a  waiver  for  open  access,  upon  author  request,  but  author  sDll  needs  to  submit  to  the  repository.  

Ø  Submission  methods  -­‐  Online  Submission  -­‐  Email  submission  -­‐  Auto  harves@ng

Repository  integra@on  with  external  systems  Daryl Grenz  

ORCID  IDs  within  the  repository  •  Added  along  within  contributor  names  in  submission  forms  or  through  metadata  update.  

•  Retrieval  via  Crossref  when  available  along  with  other  metadata  (based  on  DOI).  §  AddiDonal  opDon:  search  and  retrieval  via  the  ORCID  public  API.  

 

ORCID  IDs  within  the  repository  •  Linked  display  on  item  pages  and  in  author  browse  lists:  

•  Currently  59%  of  arDcles  and  conference  papers  in  the  repository  have  an  ORCID  for  at  least  one  author.  

 

Using  the  ORCID  member  API  

•  Internally  developed  integraDon  using  PHP  and  MySQL.  

•  Goal:    §  Provide  a  simple  method  for  KAUST  researchers  to  create  an  ORCID  ID  and  populate  their  ORCID  profile  with  affiliaDon  and  work  informaDon.  

•  Process:    §  Emails  with  custom  link  requesDng  ORCID  creaDon  or  idenDficaDon.  Follow-­‐up  emails  to  those  who  did  not  create  an  ORCID.  

Using  the  ORCID  member  API  

•  Results:    §  82%  of  faculty,  52%  of  postdocs  and  13%  of  research  scienDsts  now  have  ORCID  IDs.    

§  78%  of  those  with  ORCID  IDs  have  granted  permissions  to  KAUST  to  add  informaDon  to  their  ORCID  profile.  

•  Next  steps:  §  IniDate  the  same  process  for  current  students.  §  Develop  procedure  for  incoming  faculty  and  students.  

Inclusion  of  sources  of  research  usage  metrics  •  Repository  usage  staDsDcs  derived  from  Google  AnalyDcs.  

Inclusion  of  sources  of  research  usage  metrics  •  Scopus  citaDon  counts    

•  Altmetric.com  donut  badge  for  individual  items.  

Inclusion  of  sources  of  research  usage  metrics  •  SubscripDon  to  PlumX.

Community  engagement:  role  of  the  university  library  J. K. Vijayakumar  

•  Value  of  using  citaDon  databases  in  the  literature  search  •  Understanding  citaDon  metrics  and  tools  (h-­‐Index,  Impact  Factor,  

Altmetrics  etc.)  •  Role  of  publicaDons  in  effecDng  insDtuDonal  rankings  •  Understanding  researcher  profiling  (ORCID,  Google  Scholar  etc.)  •  Benefits  of  open  access  and  explanaDon  of  how  to  use  the  insDtuDonal  

repository  •  Academic  honesty,  plagiarism,  and  the  use  of  similarity  checking  tools  

Benefits  to  Researchers  •  Improves  their  understanding  of  how  to  

communicate  their  research  •  Helps  to  have  organized  scholarly  profile  and  

presence  •  Guides  to  navigate  in  the  complex  aspects  of  the  

changing  scholarly  communicaDons  landscape  •  Helps  in  connecDng  the  pieces  of  the  research  life  

cycle      InsDtuDonal  Benefits  

•  Enhancing  the  profile  of  individual  researchers  will  improve  their  research  impact  and  the  reputaDon  of  our  insDtuDon,  

•  Helps  in  research  funding,  faculty  evaluaDons  and  recruitment.
