Abstract
This lightning talk will provide an overview of the process Binghamton University Libraries has been using to transform faculty information from ORCID profiles into updates in Wikidata. Our pilot project began in January 2024 to support integratation of linked data workflows into cataloging efforts, diversify authority work, and improve the visibility of institutional research output in open knowledge ecosystems. This talk will discusses the process of collecting ORCID profile information via API, cleaning and mapping data in Open Refine, and proposed expansions of the workflow in future iterations. The lightning talk aims to offer practical strategies for other institutions interested in exploring similar projects to enhance their faculty’s open identity footprint.
