SERVAL news: ORCID and Web of Science

Serval makes your life easier!

From now on, Serval is periodically monitoring the latest publications belonging to UNIL/CHUV published in Web of Science. It then searches for duplicates and cleans the list to only import the ones that are not yet in Serval.

When Serval finds ORCID identifiers in the metadata of new publications and that these identifiers have been linked to Unisciences by one of our authors, it adds the relevant links and sends a message to the linked persons.

The message sends the individuals to their list of proposals. They will then be able to import these proposals into Serval in a few clicks. A video tutorial showing the steps to follow is available.

If you want to benefit from this feature, don’t forget to create your ORCID profile, communicate it to your editor when you publish your next article and to link it to Unisciences. This will ensure that the publications belong to you and reduce the likelihood of incorrect emails being sent.

To guide SERVAL users on their role, their rights and the help available, summary sheets are available online.
