What will be covered?

During the webinar, participants will learn about:

• What ORCID is and its role in international scholarly communication;
  
• The opportunities that membership in a national ORCID Consortium opens up for institutions;
  
• Technical aspects of integrating ORCID with institutional repositories, CRIS systems, and internal research information systems;
  
• Automation of researchers’ profile updates;
  
• Enhancing the visibility and transparency of an institution’s research output;
  
• International best practices for organizational-level ORCID implementation.
  

Why is this important for institutions?

Membership in the ORCID Consortium enables institutions to:

Centrally administer ORCID integration within the organization;
Ensure accurate identification of researchers and their publications;
Reduce duplication of profiles and authorship errors;
Improve reporting quality and scientometric analysis;
Strengthen the international visibility of the institution;
Comply with the requirements of international funding programs and publishers.

For Ukrainian research institutions, this is also an important step toward aligning with European Open Science standards and integrating into the global research ecosystem.

The webinar will be useful for research managers, scholarly communication specialists, repository administrators, librarians, and IT professionals.

We look forward to your participation!
