Review of selected organisational IDs and development of use cases for the Jisc CASRAI-UK Organisational Identifiers Working Group
Year: 2015
Type: other
Abstract: This project aimed to investigate and review candidates for providing an authoritative, widely used unique identifier for organisations involved in research in the UK. Specifically, we undertook to: \n● clarify a representative but not comprehensive set of use cases for the UK research community to use organisational identifiers (orgIDs); \n● survey and interview a small number of well-informed people in the field in order to create and prioritise a list of desirable features for the provision of orgIDs and potential services built around them; \n● check the use cases and these required features against four possible candidate orgIDs and their providers; \n● inform the Working Group of our conclusions and, if appropriate, make recommendations for adoption by the UK research community.
