Getting your ORCID

Distinguish yourself

Privacy controlYou determine what, how, and with whom the information in your ORCID record is shared.

http://orcid.org/privacy-policy

• Use ORCID import wizards to import your works into your ORCID record.

• This import process populates your record and attaches your ORCID iD to the works you claim.

2. Add your info: import works

Linking to ORCID from ResearcherID

Create an ORCID iD or associate

existing ORCID iD with

ResearcherID

Exchange profile and/or

publication data between ORCID

and ResearcherID

Using your ORCID

In grant applications

Import information from ORCID record

Link grant application to

ORCID identifier

Funders like the NIH and Wellcome Trust are now requesting ORCIDs during grant submission.

In publications

Link to your ORCID when submitting a manuscript

Claim other kinds of works that you have shared in disciplinary repositories

Tie your ORCID to your repository account(s) to get credit for other works, such as data, posters, slides, software. These can be imported into your profile using the DataCite Import tool.

You can use ORCIDs internally at some institutions

You are always free to use your ORCID as part of your personal profile

Summary

• Your ORCID can be used to link nearly all your works to you, no matter what name you use or how similar your name is to others

• It can help reduce the need to enter the same profile information into multiple systems and keep it updated

• You control your profile information, what information you wish to share, and what organizations you trust to access and modify it

• Your ORCID is portable across systems and institutions, through your career, and can be used as a switchboard that links to more specialized IDs

• It’s free for researchers and supported by an open community-driven non-profit
