Ball State's membership with ORCiD allows for integrations between ORCiD and BSU's employee and student systems.

ORCID 101: The ORCID ID and Record 
June 9 @ 3PM via Zoom 
ORCID stands for Open Researcher and Contributor ID.  An ORCiD ID is a persistent digital identifier (not unlike a social security number) that is associated with a specific researcher involved in scholarly communication. These unique identifiers are meant to solve the issue of author ambiguity due to similar names, spelling variations, and individual database indexing.

Many Ball State researchers already have an ORCID profile and experience the benefits firsthand. Ball State’s membership unlocks a range of integrations that can further enhance the power of your ORCID iD, making managing your scholarship easier than ever. 

Getting and using your free ORCID iD and ORCID record can help you save time and get credit for your work in funding, publishing, and research reporting workflows. Funding organizations, publishers, and research institutions are increasingly requiring or asking for ORCID iDs from researchers, so this workshop will help you make sure you are ahead of the game.  

In this workshop, Ball State’s partner, Lyrasis, will cover:

  • An overview of the benefits of ORCID for researchers
  • How ORCID can help you save time throughout the research landscape
  • Tips and tricks for keeping your ORCID record up-to-date 

No prior experience with ORCID necessary. The session recording will be sent to all who register.
