  1. Identification of Funders and Grants Monica OmodeiCAUL/ANDS Webinar – “Joining the Dots”July 17, 2014

  2. Missing Links ….

  3. Why funder identification? • Acknowledgement is necessary for transparency • Using a standard global identifier would allow: • ability to subsequently validate/lookup grant identifier (for funders who supply grant data) • discovery filtered by funder • easier reporting to funders • linking to more information about the funder

  4. Why grant identification • Globally unique persistent identifier will resolve to details about the grant • When publications and datasets are linked to the same research grant, connections can be inferred • Enables reporting of outputs against research grants

  5. Funders Databases ? • The FundRefRegistry maintained by CrossRefprovides a taxonomy of more than 6000 standardized funder names. • Some journals incorporate the FundRef Registry into their publication submission processes. Authors select a funder(s) but type grant number(s) • Publishers send this information to CrossRef as part of their metadata deposits for obtaining DOIs. • CrossRef searching can be filtered by funder • This data is also in CrossMark Record tab • Also available via API

  6. Australian Funders • Needs coordinated effort to assemble normalised list of funders integrated with FundRef Database • Wise to use existing global identifier scheme pioneered by Fundref if supported by other Research Data Alliance members

  7. What about grant information ? • ANDS has initiated discussions with CrosssRef/FundRef and selected publishers to investigate interest in using lookup services for grantIDs in their submission interfaces– eg ANDS Research Grant API, … • Lead to improved cleanliness of grant number data in FundRef database • Grant information could then be included in CrossRef and publisher discovery services

  8. Grants Databases ? • ANDS Registry – currently only ARC and NHMRC grants but plan to include data from other funders • Funders own grant databases – how to aggregate this data into the ANDS registry • International • UK Research Councils (API using CERIF schema) • UK Digital Curation Centre in the UK is piloting a Research Data Registry including grants data • Open AIRE Project - 24,000 research projects funded by the EC and 9,000 by WellcomeTrust

  9. Publishers • Work with participating journals to enable controlled submission of Funder and Grant Information (ie standard identifiers) via available databases (eg ANDS Research Grant API) • Submit funder and grant metadata to CrossRef when obtaining DOIs • Enhance discovery and display to include funder and grant informationvia the identifier • Initial discussions commenced with Elsevier, PLoS, Thomson Reuters

  11. Journals and Manuscript Tracking Systems • Manuscript Tracking Systems used by journals need to be enhanced to provide the funder and grant taxonomies in the author submission process • Submission guidelines and systems need to better support citation of data • Journal searching/browsing to display funder and grant information

  12. Libraries / Institutions • Submission/update processes (articles and data) need to be enhanced to ‘link’ to funders and grants • Submission/update processes for articles need to be enhanced to ‘link’ to research data • Submission/update processes for data need to be enhanced to ‘link’ to related publications • There are opportunities for software tools to assist with connecting data and publications if they are both tagged with the same research grant
