By Katherine Hughes, EMBL Open Science Information Specialist<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We made it to the end – It is Day 5 of The 5 Days of Open Access Week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year for Open Access Week 2025, OSIM has released a blog post each day on a different topic with a short quiz or activity. For those that have completed each activity, you will be entered into a raffle to win a prize. For today\u2019s task, you have until the end of Monday 27th October to complete it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we have two tasks for you to complete to help share your published work and meet part of EMBL\u2019s Open Science requirement<\/a> as well as many funders open access requirements. Most authors will already have an ORCID iD<\/a>. ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID. An ORCID iD is a unique persistent identifier for authors that remains the same throughout their career. This is especially useful for authors who may share a common name. If you do not already have an ORCID<\/a>, it is easy and free to sign up for one. Also, EMBL\u2019s Open Science Policy requires that all researchers have an ORCID iD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you have an ORCID, it is important that you link it to both Workday and Europe PMC for several reasons such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Increases visibility of your work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Creates a complete list of your publications that can be used for grant proposals and CVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Helps EMBL to track and report on publications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Linking your ORCID to Workday and Europe PMC will help automate this process and make maintaining your publication lists much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task no. 1 \u2013 Link your ORCID to Workday<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Follow the steps below to connect your ORCID to Workday \u2013 it takes no time at all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Log in to Workday and access your profile at the top right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Go to the \u201cView Profile\u201d section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Click on the \u201cAdd Statement\u201d link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. In the \u201cType\u201d dropdown menu, select \u201cORCID Number.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Enter your ORCID iD and click \u201cSubmit\u201d to save the information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your ORCID iD will then be visible on your EMBL staff page alongside your email address and telephone number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Task no. 2 \u2013 Claim papers on Europe PMC<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All EMBL articles should be deposited in Europe PMC under EMBL\u2019s Open Science Policy<\/a>. Some publishers deposit papers on the author\u2019s behalf, but not all do, so it is best to check. By linking your ORCID, it will help identify your papers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Go to https:\/\/europepmc.org\/orcid\/import<\/a> and select ‘Start’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Sign into ORCID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. A list of papers matching your name will be displayed. Papers already linked to you as an author have a green background. Select the checkbox next to other publications which are yours and select ‘Continue’. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Review the publications you have selected and click on ‘Send to ORCID’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Your publications should now be up to date in all places that use ORCID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you have completed these two tasks, please email osim@embl.org to let us know. By completing today\u2019s activity along with quizzes from Day 1<\/a>, Day 2<\/a>, and Day 4<\/a> (Day 3<\/a> did not have a quiz) you will then be entered into a raffle to win a prize for Open Access Week 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
