Give your research, scholarly & creative works enhanced visibility by taking two important steps: create an ORCID iD if you don’t have one, and if you do, connect it to UNM through your NET ID login. UNM is an institutional member of ORCID and has provided the ability to connect personal ORCID iDs; UNM also supports faculty and staff in creating and maintaining their ORCID iD presence.

ORCID iDs, or Open Researcher and Contributor Identifiers, are unique IDs that you can use as a researcher to identify scholarly and creative works. The IDs help funders, publishers, scholarly societies, and other researchers to quickly find and distinguish your work from materials created by other researchers with similar names. There is a special urgency behind this drive to have UNM researchers establish ORCID iDs: as of January 2023, all U.S. federal agencies will require researchers to have a digital persistent identifier, and an ORCID iD is the only one that meets all criteria established by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.  

Support for UNM’s institutional ORCID is provided as a collaboration between University Libraries and the UNM-HSC Health Sciences Library & Informatics Center. For questions related to getting your ORCID iD set up and/or connected to UNM, please contact:
