Orcid.chalmers.se: A create and connect web service for ORCID at Chalmers University

Other conference contribution, 2014

Chalmers University became an institutional member of the ORCID community in June 2013. The membership, as well as the local ORCID services and support, is coordinated and maintained by the university library. Since then we have completed the first phase of the implementation of ORCID id:s at the university - including a pilot project, in which we worked closely together with one of the research departments, and the development of a new easy-to-use web service for the creation of ORCID id:s and for connecting these – and existing id:s - to the university infrastructure, by the use of API:s provided by ORCID and corresponding systems. This service was launched in January 2014 and can be found at orcid.chalmers.se.
