Challenge-ORCID-Findable lesson #68

Description

@selgebali

The challenge below is taken from the Sprint GoogleDoc.

ORCID + DOI Autoupdate.
Suggestion:

  • Register for an ORCID account and activate it if you don't have one (if you don't want to have an official ORCID iD, you can also use the Sandbox environment https://sandbox.orcid.org/)

  • Apply desired privacy settings to the data in your ORCID profile

  • Use the Search & Link Tool/Wizard to connect your ORCID with Crossref Metadata Search and DataCite. See if there're already works authored by you that you can import from the wizard.

  • Upload a work (e.g. your most recent presentation) to Zenodo or Figshare (both use DataCite DOIs). Remember to fill in the metadata correctly and add your ORCID iD to it.

  • Wait a couple of minutes to see the work appearing in your ORCID Record.

Comment: Zenodo mints a DOI for each uploaded version and another one for the complete collection of version. If we only upload one work, it looks like if two DOIs were minted for the same object. This leads to a duplicate in the ORCID Record, but can be seen as an opportunity to explain the "combine" option in ORCID. https://orcid.org/blog/2020/06/18/new-features-alert-combining-work-items

Is anyone interested in expanding on these exercises and reviewing them? You could also add them to the main lesson under Findable. Don't forget to add the solution to the lesson.
