AP2016: Connecting Research & Researchers

Connecting Research and Researchers

This session will introduce ORCID (Open Researcher & Contributor ID) – a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes you from others and ensures that your work is correctly attributed to yourself.

Participants will learn how ORCID identifiers are being used in different stages of scholarly communication, and how you can exploit ORCID during the progress of your research career. ORCID works with more than 350 member organizations and some journals publishers such as IEEE are now requiring ORCID from their authors. Librarians will help you set up your ORCID on the spot!
