What is My CV?<\/h3>\n

My CV<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>(mycv.bu.edu<\/a>) is a software system that assists Boston University faculty members in collecting and maintaining their scholarly and professional contributions, storing the data in one place<\/strong>. My CV provides a repository for basic profile information, such as appointments and education, publications, teaching activities, grants and professional activities. Wherever possible, the system pre-populates with data from both internal and external source systems to save time and reduce the data entry.<\/p>\n

My CV also uses ORCID (orcid.org<\/a>) to help with author disambiguation, eliminating issues with common names and name changes. Boston University Research has an Open Research and Contributor ID Project site (bu.edu\/orcid<\/a>) to assist with initiating your ORCID record creation or reporting an existing ORCID.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/p>\n

My CV also facilitates the Faculty Annual Review (FAR) system on the Charles River Campus. Eligible activities from a faculty member’s My CV profile will pull into their Faculty Annual Report, reducing the amount of manual data entry in the review process.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the system provides support for faculty in adhering to BU\u2019s Open Access Policy<\/a> by automatically flagging those publications that fall under the policy and making it easy to deposit into OpenBU<\/a>. For more information about BU’s Open Access Policy, please see the FAQ<\/a> page on the Boston University Libraries<\/a> site.<\/p>\n

Where can I go for help?<\/h3>\n
