[EP-tech] Using ORCID with EPrints - draft specification of requirements

[Owen Stephens]

Dear all,

I’m working as part of the Jisc UK ORCID Consortium support team, and as part of this work we have been working on a specification how how it should be possible to use ORCID with EPrints - with the intention that this will be used as the basis of some software development.

So far we’ve been drawing on a number of sources to inform the specification including a survey of the EPrints User Group[1], the ORCID page on the EPrints Wiki[2], recommendations from ORCID[3], existing examples of eprints/ORCID integration, and comments from members of the EPrints users community.

We now have a first version of the specification available for comment - and would really like to gather feedback from the wider EPrints community. The specification is available at:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZmSjLgsAy1KIKqX4Ct5muvK2ASx9TdW5RZZy5rSoPn8/edit?usp=sharing

The document is open for comments - please use the comments facility to ask questions or make suggestions

We would very much welcome any feedback you have

Best wishes,

Owen
