Elevating your Research’s Impact and Visibility with ORCID and DataCite

Persistent identifiers (PIDs) play a key role in making research outputs visible, connected, and reusable across systems. ORCID and DataCite offer complementary solutions that, when used together, help researchers, institutions, and infrastructure providers improve attribution, tracking, and trust in the research ecosystem.

This hands-on webinar provides a practical introduction to integrating ORCID and DataCite workflows. It focuses on two established integration methods: the ORCID Search & Link wizard and ORCID Auto-Update. Participants will learn how these tools work, what problems they solve, and how they can be implemented to automatically connect researchers with their research outputs, reduce manual effort, and improve metadata quality.

The session is designed for researchers, DataCite and ORCID members, repository managers, research support staff, and anyone involved in managing or integrating persistent identifiers.
