authorIDy: Listing Contributions by Contributor Identifier

Activity: Talk or presentationAcademic

Description

Increasingly, repositories allow, recommend, or require providing unique contributor identifiers, such as ORCID or ISNI, when depositing contributions. Despite this evolution, few repositories provide a machine interface that allows listing the contributions made by a researcher using their contributor identifier as a key. An interface with this capability, supported across repositories, would facilitate a range of use cases and could be an important next step towards realizing COAR's Next Generation Repositories vision. This presentation will introduce the core characteristics of authorIDy, a conceptual proposal for such a machine interface. The presentation is mainly aimed at soliciting feedback to inform next steps. Therefor, sufficiently in advance of the presentation, a document will be made available that gives an overview of key aspects of the proposal, which has simplicity at its core.
