Open Access Week – create/link your ORCID ID and win some OA prizes!

oa week 2017Heriot-Watt Research Support This week is Open Access Week, an international event to promote the benefits of open access.

To promote scholarly communication, we would like to invite all researchers and post-graduate research students to register for an ORCID ID, let us know, and enter into a prize draw.  If you already have an ORCID ID, did you know you can link your Pure and ORCID profiles?

ORCID provides a persistent digital identifier that distinguishes you from every other researcher, and through integration in key research workflows such as manuscript and grant submission, supports automatic linkages between your professional activities.

Create an ORCID ID

Academic staff can create an ORCID ID from within Pure – see video – or synchronise your ORCID and Pure profiles.

Please let us know of your new ORCID ID: email open.access@hw.ac.uk or tweet us @OpenResHWU

All entries by 30th October 2017.
