Funding!ODIN is a 24 month project funded by the European Commission FP7 INFRA-2012-3.3 program, grant # 312788. !
Trusted, interoperable identifiers for researchers and data!

The DataCite consortium works to establish easier access to research data, increase acceptance of research data as legitimate contributions in the scholarly record, and to support data archiving in order for results to be verified and data to be re-purposed for future study. Since 2009, DataCite has assigned over 1M digital object identifiers (DOI) to make research data citable. The EZID service is a DataCite registry based at the California Digital Library UC Curation Center, a DataONE partner organization, and registers DOIs for DataONE member nodes such as Dryad.!
The Open Researcher & Contributor ID Initiative (ORCID) is an open, non-profit, community-based effort to provide a registry of unique researcher identifiers and a transparent method of linking research activities and outputs to these identifiers. ORCID reaches across disciplines, research sectors, and national boundaries; it also provides linkages to other identifier systems. Members include publishers, funders, research institutions, repositories (including Dryad), and commercial and nonprofit profile providers. !
Toward an identifier-aware eInfrastructure !ODIN, the ORCID and DataCite Interoperability project aims to identify opportunities and challenges in the application of persistent, discipline-neutral, interoperable researcher and data identifiers, and provide a roadmap for inclusion of such identifiers within the next generation of European eInfrastructure. !Opportunities for the DataONE community!Coordinating Nodes require identifier persistence, uniqueness and resolvability for data and metadata objects, but DataONE is largely agnostic about which identifiers Member Nodes use. Widely adopted identifiers for researchers and data could facilitate discovery, attribution and usage tracking of research data across the network. The DataONE community can be expected to benefit from the uptake of trusted, interoperable researcher and data identifiers.!

High energy physics!One of ODIN’s two proofs of concept is in the Humani'es and Social Sciences. Data in this discipline may pass through numerous hands between incep@on, analysis and publica@on. The Bri@sh Birth Cohort Studies are a key resource for public health research in the UK, and have been built up by the cumula@ve effort of many different researchers over the last 65 years. The Bri@sh Library is exploring ways to ensure the contribu@ons of each genera@on of researchers are correctly a#ributed.

ODIN’s proof of concept in High Energy Physics presents a very different challenge. Approximately 2800 scien@sts work at any one @me on the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Author lists on publica@on and datasets are enormous and error-‐prone. Researchers have mul@ple affilia@ons and oWen change them during the course of publica@on. The CERN Inspire repository is developing a workflow and organiza@on model to harmonize and interconnect the iden@fiers for the various versions of preprints, published ar@cles, associated data in mul@ple repositories, and researchers.
Scratch your own itch!ODIN invites the data communinty to a conference from 15-‐17 October 2013 at CERN, in Geneva, Switzerland. The first two days will be a Codesprint, in which developers are invited to use the ORCID and DataCite APIs and metadata to collabora@vely explore what can be accomplished with these services and data in the wild. The event will include bootcamps on topics selected by par@cipants. More informa@on and registra@on at h#p://indico.cern.ch/event/odin-‐1st-‐year Who knows what might come of your “vague but interes@ng” ideas!
