As we enter our second month of the project, here’s a little more background.
The project is funded to the tune of £10k. iSolutions work on integrating ORCID with our systems will account for £5k, with another £2k for work on ePrints. The remaining £3k will cover staff costs in the Library related to management of the project. The cost of ORCID membership will be borne separately by the Library.
Timescales are tight and we are currently looking at the best ways to roll out ORCID membership and beginning to engage with the acdemic community to raise awareness of the project.
