ORCID IDs

This guide provides information about ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor Identifier) and its utility for researchers at Gonzaga University

Adding Works

There are three ways to add works to your ORCID record:

  • Link your works from another system (recommended)
  • Import a BibTeX file of your works 
  • Manually type in information about your works (least preferred)

To link works from another system, choose Search & link from the Add works menu in the works portion of your record:

Select a system from the list (CrossRef is a good general source, others will depend on your discipline). You'll be asked to authorize the system, and will then be able to identify works in that system that are yours and that you would like transferred to your record. Each system behaves a little differently, and there may be a couple of intermediate steps not described here. For more information, see Add works by direct import from other systems in the ORCID Knowledge Base.

To import a BibTeX file of your works, choose Import BibTeX from the Add works menu in the works portion of your record, and import the file. For more information, see Importing Works from a BibTeX File in the ORCID Knowledge Base.

To manually type in information about your works, choose Add manually from the Add works menu in the works portion of your record, and complete the form to describe a work. For more information, see Add works manually in the ORCID Knowledge Base. 

To add other kinds of information to your ORCID record, see Get more out of your ORCID iD.

Set your visibility

ORCID allows you to specify the visibility setting for any section or individual entry within a section. The three levels of visibility allowed are:

  • Public
  • Trusted individual/organization
