ORCID ID's and your Online Researcher Identity

Home

ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) provides a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes you from every other researcher and, through integration in key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission, supports automated linkages

ORCID Consortium

ORCID consortia foster communities of practice that apply ORCID services and resources in regional and national contexts, using global implementation standards. The Irish ORCID consortium is part of a co-ordinated approach to the adoption and integration of ORCID in Ireland, directed by the Higher Education Authority. IReL is the lead organisation for the Irish ORCID consortium with Bridie O’Neill currently managing community and technical support for consortium members. The strategic agenda for the consortium is set by the Irish ORCID Steering Group.

Consortium membership is open to higher education, non-profit organizations, and government research and funding agencies located and organized under the laws of Ireland. Consortia membership is the premium level of membership and includes the following benefits:

  • 5 ORCID premium member API credentials;
  • the ability to read/write to the profiles of researchers (with permission);
  • on-demand analytics reports with personalised statistics from ORCID ensuring more complete reporting of research outputs;
  • access to the ORCID Affiliation Manager to add and update affiliation data;
  • dedicated technical and community support.
