Dear researchers and members of the KU Faculty, welcome to the LibGuide for ORCID.
This guide has been created in order to include all necessary information about ORCid, so that you are fully prepared in case you would like to create your personal profile. Don't miss the chance to distinguish yourself from the millions other researchers and promote your work.

*Hint! Name confusion is a particular problem if you come from a country where some family names are very common, such us in South Korea, where over half the population share only three family names - Kim, Lee and Park.
ORC iDs are increasingly being used by publishers, funders and other organizations to confirm identity and improve their workflows. Their use has been compulsory from 2016 for some funders and publishers.
Please, do not hesitate to contact us on the matter would you have questions.
This LibGuide was created with information from the ORCID official website and other similar LibGuides.
