An Academic Identifier campaign has just been launched at IESE to promote the use of ORCID and other unique identifiers for researchers and academics, to increase the discoverability of their work.

Using author identifiers, such as ORCID, ResearcherID, ScopusID or Google Scholar offers several benefits:

-It reduces author ambiguity.
-It simplifies and facilitates the accreditation and evaluation of research activity for grant applications.
-It boosts research impact.
-It helps users to manage career changes.
-It promotes networking and collaboration.

The Research Division and the Library have collaborated to make it a success. A  Managing Academic Identity guide has been published and the Library will provide support to any researchers that need help.
