Why
establishing
Research
Repository

Ø Persistent
access
to
university
intellectual
assets,
including
grey

literature
(e.g.,
technical
reports,
conference
papers,
theses
etc.)
and

research
data,
in
order
to
preserve
and
share
scienDﬁc
knowledge

created
at
KAUST.

Ø Showcase
the
intellectual
output
of
KAUST
research,
development
of

internaDonal
research
networks
and
collaboraDons,
support
graduate

student
and
post-‐doc
recruitment.

Ø Expanding
impact
of
KAUST
research,
which
contributes
to
increased

awareness
of
and
growing

ORCID
IDs
within
the
repository

•  Added
along
within
contributor
names
in
submission
forms
or
through

metadata
update.

•  Retrieval
via
Crossref
when
available
along
with
other
metadata
(based
on
DOI).

§  AddiDonal
opDon:
search
and
retrieval
via
the
ORCID
public
API.

ORCID
IDs
within
the
repository

•  Linked

and
in

lists:

•  Currently
59%
of
arDcles
and
conference
papers
in
the
repository
have
an

ORCID
for
at
least
one
author.

Using
the
ORCID
member
API

•  Internally
developed
integraDon
using
PHP
and
MySQL.

•  Goal:

§  Provide
a
simple
method
for
KAUST
researchers
to
create
an
ORCID
ID
and

populate
their
ORCID
profile
with
affiliaDon
and
work
informaDon.

•  Process:

§  Emails
with
custom
link
requesDng
ORCID
creaDon
or
idenDficaDon.

Follow-‐up
emails
to
those
who
did
not
create
an
ORCID.

Using
the
ORCID
member
API

•  Results:

§  82%
of
faculty,
52%
of
postdocs
and
13%
of
research
scienDsts
now
have

ORCID
IDs.

§  78%
of
those
with
ORCID
IDs
have
granted
permissions
to
KAUST
to
add

informaDon
to
their
ORCID
proﬁle.

•  Next
steps:

§  IniDate
the
same
process
for
current
students.

§  Develop
procedure
for
incoming
faculty
and
students.
