The power of the ORCID initiative is to enable researchers to link easily their names with their scholarly work to insure proper attribution for the full range of their scholarly contributions. ORCID iDs are unique faculty ids that can be linked to existing identifiers such as Researcher ID, PubMed Id, and Scopus Id as well as things such as publisher manuscript submission systems, funding agency grant application workflows, and vendors specializing in faculty data metrics.
The Boulder campus hopes to use ORCID iDs to their full potential to improve information stores about our faculty's scholarly accomplishments. ORCID is a dynamic non-profit operation dedicated to the individual scholar. As it continues to evolve, more linked data and functionality will become available.
Is your ORCID iD missing?ÌýIf you have an ORCID iD that is not showing here, please email it toÌýofafacultydata@colorado.edu.
If you have a claimed ORCID iD that Faculty Affairs has on record, your ORCID iD will show on your CU Experts profile page, hyperlinked to your ORCID profile. Deans and chairs can also see ORCID iDs for their units through FRPAport.
If you are a faculty member with an active appointment, we will be re-running the registration process to include faculty who were not included during the initial summer 2014 registration process.

Faculty should carefully consider the personal information included on their submitted vitas now that this information will be viewed on the Web. Possible items to avoid include: home contact information, names of family members, date of birth, and other personal items not related to your professional work. Content of the vita is ultimately at the discretion of the individual faculty member. Logon to FRPA Online to upload a new version of your public vita. Though many file formats are allowed, uploading as a PDF file insures special characters and formatting will remain unchanged. For questions, please contactÌýofafacultydata@colorado.edu.

Future Developments
Future CU Experts development will consider how best to include other research contributors who may not have actual faculty appointments.
Future data collection efforts will continue to broaden the information on research interests and how faculty report this information. FRPA Online may remain the core channel of data collection; however, expanded efforts include searching vitas and publication data sets to determine research interests.
