Orcid: un sistema global para la identificación de investigadores

Orcid: A global system for authors identification in scholarly communication. Description of the project Open Researcher and ContributorID (Orcid) that tries to solve the name’s ambiguity and duplicity problems to identify correctly the researchers (authors and contributors) by creating a single record. This record will be connected with other current systems of author identification as Author Resolver, Inspire, IraLIS, RePEc, Scopus Author Identifier, ResearcherID, VIVO and others. Orcid will be linked to the researchers publications to facilitate its visibility, identifying contributors and reviewers and, ultimately, promoting the process of scientific discovery
