ORCID
What is ORCID?
“ORCID is an open, non-profit, community-driven effort to create and maintain a registry of unique researcher identifiers and a transparent method of linking research activities and outputs to these identifiers.”
KnowledgeArc has implemented the ORCID API which allows for using an existing ID, registering for a new ORCID from within the KnowledgeArc system, and click through to see related items and metrics associated with that ID.
