What is ORCID?
Open Research and Contributor ID (ORCID) is a platform that provides a free, unique, digital persistent identifier (DPI) for individuals engaged in research, scholarship, and innovation activities globally. ORCID is a free service and is comprised of two components:
· Record: associated record (profile) that stores automatic links to all your research and publications, and links all your research and publications with you.
· iD: 16-digit number unique to an individual
Federal agencies have started using and may soon be requiring the use of DPIs. The guidance is requiring this for three main reasons:
· Ability to verify individuals
· Reduce administrative burden for researchers through adoption of standardized formats across agencies of disclosure of information
· Increase sharing of information between funding agencies
