As of March 2014, U-M had (conservatively) 6514 people with research-level appointments of some sort — faculty, research scientists, GSRAs. Of those, 909 people had the same “Lastname, First initial” as someone else: that’s 14%.
Specifically, there were 18 “Y. Chen’s,” 18 “Y. Zhang’s,” and (a mere) 14 “J. Lee’s.”

Task Force Recommendations
1. Create IDs sooner rather than later
2. Incorporate ORCIDs into our institutional repository, Deep Blue
3. Promote ORCID primarily as author disambiguation tool
4. Partner with research office and medical school for integration

PilotFirst group: U-M librarians in spring 2013
~100 individuals
Learning process: captive, prepped audience, yet didn’t have 100% success rate; worked through duplicate process on an individual level
ORCID Outreach Meeting, May 22nd, 2014
Other PilotsAd hoc testing: chair of Library ORCID
task force is working with smaller groups of researchers on campus to batch IDs
Ongoing: identifying campus research groups that are enthusiastic about ORCID to pilot test and gather feedback

‘Informal’ Plan
• Ground-up• In-person outreach• Subject specialists• Small-group pilot
testing and feedback
ORCID Outreach Meeting, May 22nd, 2014
‘Formal’ Plan
• Top down initiative• Communication
from deans, Provost
• Planning for implementation across the University
ORCID Outreach Meeting, May 22nd, 2014
Communication Plan• Message from Provost to broad campus• Message to medical campus from Dean of
Medical School and VP for Research• Timing: must have the technical systems
in place before these communications go out
• Education for faculty and administrative staff• Subject librarians and faculty meetings
ORCID Outreach Meeting, May 22nd, 2014
What else can we do?• Working through onboarding new
employees vs. retrospectively creating IDs for current employees
• Linking to other campus profiling systems to cross-populate profiles
• Tie into existing programs
ORCID Outreach Meeting, May 22nd, 2014
What else can we do?• Include in eResearch (grants and
applications)• Integrate into med school CV system,
profile system• Identity and Access Management initiative• Integrate into Mcommunity (LDAP)
• Authority control on campus level
