“Having ORCID makes me and my work
more visible globally, so I need to put a lot of
time to maintain and update my ORCID
record.”
Well, you shouldn’t!
11. UNIVERSITY:
“ORCID is free for individuals, so we don’t
know why our university needs to pay to
become an ORCID member.”
You should!

In 2015, ORCID has been awarded an 18-month, $3 million grant by The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust to develop the infrastructure and capacity to support international adoption and technical integration of ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor) identifiers, through staff expansion, regional workshops and localized member technical support.
In 2017, we received an 18-month, $1.84M follow-up grant, which allows us to leverage the progress we have made engaging the community and increasing ORCID adoption and use over the last 18 months, and also to ensure that our technical offering scales appropriately as we grow.
While we are building our membership
base, a generous grant rom The Leona M.
and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust in
April 2015 has allowed us to hire ten ad-
ditional sta members this year, including
regional directors and support team members
in Asia-Pacifc, Latin America, and the Middle
East/Arica.13 This distributed representation
helps us to better connect with research
communities around the world, and provide
timely technical and user support.
