On Thursday, June 8, the University of Cincinnati Libraries Research & Data Services (R&DS) team will host a UC ORCID AWARENESS Day as part of the Data and Computational Science Series. We invite you to come to Rm 540B in the Faculty Enrichment Center, 5th floor of the Walter C. Langsam Library, to activate or enrich your ORCID profile.
What is an ORCID?
ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID. It is a 16-number identifier unique to you as an author and researcher.
Why should I have an ORCID?
- To distinguish you as a unique author
- To build an online profile about your scholarship and research contributions
- To help you easily access research infrastructure
- To get ahead of possible coming requirements for having an ORCID
Does it take a lot of time to activate and maintain an ORCID?
To set it up will take about 5-10 mins, and you can use automated tools to maintain it.
Does it cost something?
To register for an ORCID is free.
