Platforms bringing research information together
Examples of Commercial Platforms - CRIS Systems: Current Research Information Systems
• Pure ( Elsevier)• Symplectic (Digital Science )• Vivo• ConVeris ( Thomson Reuters)
and there are
“Find an Expert” information systems – commercial and home grown

More examples – but researcher can find themselves with many researcher profiles to maintain

Main Challenges
1. Author ID -Disambiguation- Author has to claim publications, - Author request merging, and maintain over time- Multiple IDs over time
2. Research outputs- THE REACH –increasing interdisciplinarity- Document type-creative works, books, reports, working papers, - Tracking affiliated institution- Tracking funding agency, grantmaker
3. Impact - Citation metrics- Attention metrics, media releases, - Beyond Academia - importance of creating a narrative
4. Time - increasing pressure for early signals of return on investment/ significance/ productivity/ performance

Disambiguation
CRICOS No. 00213Ja university for the worldrealR
1. Disambiguation - sample of author ids now
Thomson Reuters (ResearcherID) Elsevier (Scopus Author Identifier) Google Scholar (My Citations) ORCID (Open Researcher & Contributor ID) arXiv Author ID eRA Commons Username: National Library of Australia and
Australian National Data Service ISNI - ISNI (International Standard Name Identifier QUT ePrints ID - Institutional unique identifier
CRICOS No. 00213Ja university for the worldrealR
Which author identifier ?
ORCID
Journals, funders, institutions are moving
to ORCID ( PLOS, Nature, Elsevier,
Wellcome Trust, NIH)
ORCID integrators - API can be embedded in your RIS and Institutional Repository workflow
ORCID provides a central registry with metadata about researcher
CRICOS No. 00213Ja university for the worldrealR
Google Scholar Citations Profile – author managed
• Easy steps – create gmail account
• Make public – visible to others
• Create Alerts• Opt for automated
updates• three metrics - h-index,
i10-index and the total number of citations.
• Author has to monitor
CRICOS No. 00213Ja university for the worldrealR
2. Research Outputs - Accuracy of publication counts
• Depends on discipline• Google Scholar - most complete • Web of Science - ( 18,843 journals and
conference papers) Science and Engineering• Scopus – (29,566 journals and conference
papers)Social Sciences, Interdisciplinarity• Considerations- document type, language,
patents? Devices? Procedures?
CRICOS No. 00213Ja university for the worldrealR
3. Impact measures to include
Citation Metrics
Institutional Repository - all publications - open access full text - link to research data repository – links to Data Sets and to registry of metadata descriptions – Web of Science and Scopus citations (API).
Other Outputs -software, devices, patents, new
processes, changed behaviours, policies, media Community impact such as legislation, regulation,
change to national discourse
Esteem measure such as Awards, Invitations to Commercial Partnerships, Funding, Collaborations, Chairs in Industry, to Review Panels
Collaboration analysis for Trends and Comparison/Benchmarking
Altmetrics
Visualizations of trends in income and output
CRICOS No. 00213Ja university for the worldrealR
4. Time - influence on the profile
• Timeframe for acceptance e.g. in high impact journals
• Varying citations behaviours per discipline• Time for all citations to accumulate• Collation of media and “celebrity” portfolio• Collaborative networking grows organically• Community relationships – building social
enterprise

Customise views of the ProfileAuthority levels
Public web - WS/OAI--‐PMH ( open access interoperability)
Researcher - can edit, add biography, update supervisions, projects, interests, social media
Administrator - Support Institutional workflows – tenure, promotion, census, assessments, budget tracking, safeguard intellectual property and commercial and licensing concerns.

Best Practice for QUT authors now
1. Awareness of their Author Identifier
2. Deposit all publications in Institutional Repository and include accepted version full-text file
3. Create a Google Scholar Citations Profile
4. Make this public and link to
5. Link to University Academic Profile
