- Register for an ORCID account and activate it (or look up an existing ORCID)
- Sign in to your ORCID account and edit your profile by populating basic account fields
- Apply desired privacy settings to the data in your ORCID profile
- Enter works in your ORCID profile using three different approaches:
- Enter a Digital Object Identifier (DOI)
- Use the Search & Link tool
- Upload a BibTex citation
- Compare displayed citations from various input approaches and recognize display differents based on different data sources
- Register for an author profile with a third party system (eg, ScienceOpen, ImpactStory, MySciEnCV) using your ORCID number.
- Observe that the third party profile auto-populates with data in your ORCID account.
Author Carpentry's teaching is hands-on, so participants are encouraged to use their own computers to insure the proper setup of tools for an efficient workflow.
Before working through this lesson you will need:
- Three citations to your works, including at least two with Digital Object Identifiers issued by CrossRef.
- For demonstration purposes in this lesson, we are using the "Works" entries publicly displayed on Hugh Shanahan's ORCID profile at https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1374-6015. For the BibTeX exercise, we use a conference paper from [Hugh's publications page] (https://pure.royalholloway.ac.uk/portal/en/persons/hugh-shanahan(77128df7-1747-4d9f-8fe5-c11d30e77abc).html) at Royal Holloway.
- Hugh is co-chair of the CODATA-RDA schools in Research Data Science so thank him for allowing us to 'borrow' his publications for testing purposes during the School at DataTrieste19!
If you are not sure that your publication's DOI was issued by the CrossRef DOI Agency, visit the CrossRef Metadata Search. On the 'Search Metadata' tab, enter the DOI number starting with the '10' prefix. A record will display if the DOI was issued by CrossRef.
