Research institutions are increasingly looking for ways to connect the dots between their researchers, funding, activities, and research contributions in efforts to improve reporting and assessment processes for all parties involved. Proposed solutions must balance the accuracy and dependability of persistent identifiers with individual researchers’ need for control over their scholarly record, all while making it as easy as possible to move information between systems and workflows. As an open, non-profit, community-driven platform that supports all of these stipulations, ORCID’s popularity is on the rise. ORCID replaces static document-based CVs and repetitious form-filling with a universal, interoperable, online CV. This panel will focus on cross-campus collaborations geared towards shifting to ORCID as a central data source to help streamline local workflows for reporting and assessment, as well as to meet external grant application and reporting requirements. Case studies from three ORCID US Community institutions will explore the opportunities and challenges for using ORCID to support both internal activity reporting and a public-facing portal (University of Minnesota), student activity reporting and compliance with institutional mandates (University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center), and preparing faculty to meet grant application and reporting requirements, specifically with the new National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) requirements for grant applicants to use the SciENcv platform to create biosketches (North Carolina State University).
