Workshop aims
share the results of the latest consultation have a lot of discussion get more clarity on how to implement network
Please take shareable notes

Contributor role taxonomy: rationale
11 Dec 2014
Project origins & milestones1.Wellcome-Harvard workshop 2012
2.Initial collaboration with medical editors (ICMJE)
3.Developed draft taxonomy (2012/13)
4.Pilot with recent corresponding authors (2013)
5.Refining taxonomy & consultation phase 2 (2014 - )

14 role taxonomy
11 Dec 2014
Road testing: phase 1 Further work oTaxonomy needs to balance comprehensiveness with being fit-for-purpose
oShould taxonomy include ability to assign a ‘lead’ or ‘supporting’ contributor to a role?
oShould the roles extend beyond traditional author roles?
oHow to accommodate ‘equal’ contributions to roles?
oHow to ensure agreement among authors through process of assignment?
oNeed to keep process light; don’t create researcher burden

Contributor role project: phase 2oDevelop taxonomy further: science focusoEstablish cross-sector-disciplinary working groupoOutreach
o Project support from CASRAI & NISOo Engagement with potential implementers (e.g. Lab
management software vendors; publishers; Manuscript Submission software (MSS vendors)

Key considerations
oTaxonomy needs to be fit-for-purpose
oHow to deal with large numbers of authors
oHow/whether to assign ‘level’ of contribution
oNeeds effective implementation & clear use
oMust not add to ‘researcher burden’
