ORCID

The portal ORCID is a free, unique, persistent identifier system for researchers to manage their research activities and distinguish themselves from others with the same name. It provides a portable profile data that can be shared between funding, publications, data repositories, and other research workflows, reducing administrative burden and input errors for universities and research institutions. Publishers can also integrate with ORCID to streamline their workflows for authors, editors, and reviewers, improving the overall value of their publications. ORCID helps researchers spend more time on their research and less time managing it by reducing administrative burden and tracking careers. It also supports research productivity by allowing universities and research institutions to stay updated with their researchers' outputs and collaborators at other institutions. Keywords: ORCID, researchers, persistent identifier, profile data, universities, research institutions, publishers, administrative burden, research productivity.
