***apologies for cross-posting*** Dear Community,
as most of you are probably aware of, there is a grant opportunity from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to support projects of adoption and integration of ORCID into local profile systems such as a CRIS or an extended IR. https://orcid.org/content/rfp-2013-06-orcid-id-adoption-and-integration-program As technical members of the DSpace Community we will be very interested to work with international partners on this topics. Below we have drafted some integration scenarios that highlight how this grant opportunity could support new cool features for DSpace and the DSpace-CRIS addon (http://cilea.github.com/dspace-cris/). This grant could also be the opportunity to adopt DSpace-CRIS in your existent DSpace installation to provide Researcher showcases / profile systems for your University/ Research Institution. The deadline for submitting proposals, August 31, 2013 is approaching fast: please contact me if interested. ORCID Integration Scenarios: - Authentication: We propose to develop an authentication plugin for DSpace to allow researchers to login in their IR using their ORCID credentials. - ORCID creation and/or association: We propose to develop an integration between the DSpace-CRIS open source addon used to managed the researchers profile inside the IR and the ORCID authority. The researcher will be able to request a new ORCID sending the information already available in her IR profile or associate an existent ORCID to her profile. In the case of new researchers or researchers that have not yet created a personal profile in the IR, supplying an existent ORCID the profile information will be prefilled with the data coming from ORCID. - Keeping profiles synchronized: We propose to develop an integration between the DSpace-CRIS addon and ORCID to allow the researcher to easily keep synchronized profiles in IR and ORCID. The system will suggest to retrieve data from ORCID in case any update on the ORCID side is detected or send update to ORCID after editing of the IR profile. - Update publication list on ORCID: the researcher will be able to send some of her publication records from the IR to her ORCID profile Import publication records in the IR from ORCID: the researcher will be able to select one or more publications to import in the IR from the bibliographic records available in ORCID. These and other scenarios could be taken into consideration for a collaboration to apply for the grant.
