Do you have a common name and find yourself getting mixed up with others? Are you worried about what would happen to your scholarly record if you changed your name? Do you wish that you had one single profile that brought together all of your academic appointments, grants, publications, and presentations? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lib.ncsu.edu\/orcid-open-researcher-and-contributor-id\">ORCID<\/a> is your solution!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/orcid.org\/\">ORCiD iD<\/a> is the one number that every researcher needs \u2013 it\u2019s a unique identifier for your scholarly identity, comparable to a social security number or an ISBN. Your ORCID profile contains a record of your work that can be reused across systems (like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lib.ncsu.edu\/sciencv-for-biosketches\">the biographical sketch program SciENcv<\/a>). ORCID iD\u2019s are also increasingly <a href=\"https:\/\/info.orcid.org\/requiring-orcid-in-publications\/\">required by journals<\/a> and by federal funders, who consider it the identifier of choice. ORCID\u2019s goal is for you to \u201center once, reuse often\u201d, reducing the number of times you need to enter and re-enter your scholarly works by integrating with many other systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Filling out an academic profile with all of your prior publications can be a time-consuming and tedious task \u2013 the good news with ORCID is that the libraries will do that work for you! If you connect your ORCID account to the Libraries\u2019 Citation Index, you unlock our <a href=\"https:\/\/ci.lib.ncsu.edu\/user\/cv-service\">CV Service<\/a>.
