Keynote on author identity from @alicemeadows this morning on the final day at our conference in Oslo.

The recent STM Association report on trusted identity recommends institutionally verified identity and using ORCID trust markers:

Encourage your community of authors, co-authors, reviewers, editorial board members, etc to get an ORCID ID and connect it with their other identifiers

Encourage them to use their ORCID ID and give ORCID members permission to update their records (note, auto-updates by Crossref, DataCite, and others are especially valuable)

Add your own service information (eg, editorial board membership, review contributions, etc) to ORCID records

Work with your vendors to ensure they read AND write trusted information from/to ORCID records

Preserving the Integrity of the Scholarly Record: Danielle Padula, Scholastica & Madhura Amdekar, Crossref chair a panel on metadata, with Alice Meadows, MoreBrains & David Haber, ASM.

- Persistent identifiers (PIDs) are key to trustworthy info
- Metadata can be trust signals
- Identity & provenance are important
- Metadata makes articles & data findable/interoperable
- Join communities, e.g., NISO

The PID-optimised research cycle - an infographic 

1. Grant Application

Researchers and institutions pass PIDs for previous grants, outputs, organisations, people, and projects to grant application systems

BENEFITS:

1. Less manual data entry

2. More accurate data

3. More time for including contextual information

@MobileMaggie Thanks! Yeah #permalinks are great, and IMO perma.cc/ is great for institutional archiving.

Of course, if a #DOI exists, the URL itself could be a permalink, and there's even an official DOI URL shortener:

shortdoi.org/

And for items without a DOI, the @internetarchive maintains a Persistent URL (#PURL) service:
