Abstract

The results of a study on the situation of digital identity of the research community of the University of A Coruña are presented. The universe has been established with the faculty members listed in the university´s research catalog, and their presence in Orcid, ResearcherID, Scopus Author, Google Scholar Citations, ResearchGate and Mendeley was examined. The results show that the presence should be increased, but compared with others found in the literature, it can be assessed as positive. The role that researchers, the university library and the university must assume in this issue is suggested.
