Integrations
Step-by-step integration guides for the platforms institutions and publishers actually use — CRIS systems (Pure, Symplectic Elements, VIVO, Worktribe) and editorial systems (Editorial Manager, ScholarOne). Each guide documents which CASRAI endpoints to use, integration steps, and the operational gotchas.
By platform
Pick your system
Elsevier
Pure CRIS
Pure is one of the most widely-deployed Current Research Information Systems globally — used by ~400+ universities across the UK, EU, Australia, and increasingly North America. Pure ingests publication, grant, and contribution metadata from Scopus, ORCID, Crossref, and direct deposit. CRediT is supported as a contribution-type vocabulary; integration with the CASRAI Dictionary lets institutions augment Pure's controlled-vocabulary lists with the full CASRAI term set.
Integration guide →Symplectic
Symplectic Elements
Symplectic Elements (Digital Science) is a research-management platform used by ~250 institutions worldwide. Elements ingests publication metadata from Web of Science, Scopus, PubMed, Crossref, and ORCID; supports CRediT as a configurable contribution-type vocabulary; widely used in the UK + Ireland + Australia (LERU, Russell Group, ATN coverage strong).
Integration guide →DuraSpace community
VIVO (open-source)
VIVO is an open-source semantic-web research-information platform — used heavily in US AMCs, Cornell, Duke, UF, NIH, and elsewhere. RDF-native; supports SPARQL queries; CRediT integration via SKOS Concept mappings. Excellent fit for the CASRAI Dictionary because VIVO's ontology stack naturally consumes RDF Turtle / OWL.
Integration guide →Worktribe
Worktribe
Worktribe is a UK-headquartered research-management platform — strong adoption across UK universities (King's College London, Glasgow, Strathclyde, etc.). Combines grant management, ethics workflow, publication tracking, and REF reporting in one platform. CRediT supported via configurable vocabulary; CASRAI Dictionary integration via REST/GraphQL.
Integration guide →Aries Systems
Editorial Manager
Editorial Manager (Aries Systems, an Elsevier company) is the most widely-deployed submission-and-peer-review system for scholarly journals — used by Elsevier, Cell Press, BMC, Springer, and dozens of independent publishers. Native CRediT support since 2017 with structured per-author per-role capture at submission. Outputs JATS XML with CRediT roles tagged via NISO URIs.
Integration guide →Clarivate
ScholarOne Manuscripts
ScholarOne Manuscripts (Clarivate) is the second-most-deployed submission-and-peer-review system after Editorial Manager — used by Wiley, OUP, SAGE, AAAS (Science), Cambridge, and many society publishers. Full CRediT support since 2018 with structured capture; JATS XML output; Crossref deposit; ORCID integration.
