## ORCID Identifiers    Open Researcher Contributor ID or ORCID is a free service that provides authors a unique persistent identifier and profile. It saves authors time by allowing them to consolidate their works in one place. ORCID provides authors with common names a means to disambiguate themselves. Authors can improve their impact through enhanced discovery, taking advantage of new services like ImpactStory. AAS is a leader btw, ADS will integrate with ORCID, institutions like BU are starting to integrate ORCID into their administrative systems.
