Scholarly identity is about more than the articles you publish or the projects you share online with your research communities. Your scholarly identity includes the many parts of your history and engagement as a researcher, including your education, employment, awards, collaborators, and more – and it exists whether you are the one curating it or not. Taking control of your scholarly identity supports your visibility, credibility, and transparency as a researcher and plays a crucial role in open scholarly communication.

This workshop will cover the importance and impact of creating and managing your scholarly identity with tools like ORCID and Google Scholar, as well as how these tools connect with other network and profile platforms. We will also explore other options like Twitter and ResearchGate.
