About the community

The UK ORCID community brings together members and prospective members of the UK ORCID consortium. The community provides a space to share and compare experiences, and good practice guidance, of ORCID integration in UK higher education and research organisations.

Peers can discuss approaches and strategies to improve uptake and progress integration, and receive updates from ORCID and the Jisc support team. 

The community acts to change the infrastructure landscape. It holds events throughout the year, has a mailing list and Microsoft Teams community space.  Together, members work towards the aim to use and apply ORCID IDs more effectively to bring about benefits for researchers and research organisations.
