that distinguishes researchers from each other
and links them to an organization identifier
ORCID record
Individuals register for free and
use this at their institution,
funders and publishers
Organizations join as members
and can build integrations into
their systems
Universities
Funders
Association
s
Publishers
3. Organizations are collaborating to
ensure persistent identifiers for
people, places, and things are
connected in research workflows
ORCID enables assertions
ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes researchers from each other
Member-built integrations in key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission support automated linkages between researchers and their professional activities and affiliations, ensuring that works are appropriately attributed and discoverable
ORCID serves as a hub enabling machine-readable connections between identifiers for organizations, works, and person IDs
This requires collaborations among all actors in the research community: identifier providers, for sure, but also publishers, societies, universities, repositories, funders, and researchers themselves. This is not a trivial endeavor. Everyone needs to expend some work. But, it is happening. Here is an example of one such collaboration involving ORCID, Ringgold, and the IT, library, research office, and faculty affairs at a large research university. Lots of moving parts, culminating in a public, electronic, and validated record of a person’s affiliation.
This record is available through a public API and can be used during a manuscript submission or peer review invitation process to auto-populate and/or validate affiliation. Save your authors time, improve data quality, and improve trust in one package.
