ORCID inPublishers workflows
As persistent identifiers for contributors to the research process, ORCID forms the basis of precise and durable mechanisms of credit.
Additional benefits – ORCID has the potential to:
ü Disambiguate databases of users
ü Simplify manuscript submission - author service
ü Improve discoverability and search
ü Connect authors to related contributions elsewhere, inter-
operating with an ecosystem of identifiers
ü Extend credit from authors to reviewers and editors

Credit for authors
• Collection of ORCID iDs in submission system
• Display of ORCID iDs in published articles
• Syndicate ORCID iDs as part of metadata of the article to indexers
• Auto-update author ORCID profile via CrossRef
• Synergize with standard for contributions
ORCID collection: use ORCID API
• In manuscript tracking system – upon submission or registration
• Enables single sign on
• Via ORCID button in correspondence
Auto-update
With ORCID integration, Authors and their administrators no longer need to keep profiles updated manually
CRediT – Contributor Roles Taxonomy
A simple taxonomy of research contributions developed under the auspices of CASRAI and NISO.
- Includes but not limited to traditional authorship roles
- Makes contributions machine-readable and portable

Become portable to ORCID record, CV, faculty profile, etc
Credit for peer review
On January 7, 2016, a coalition of publishers sign an Open Letter committing to start requiring ORCID IDs in 2016.
1. Implementing best practices for ORCID collection and auto-update of ORCID records upon publication
2. Require ORCID IDs for corresponding authors and encourage for co-authors
