## OJS Description


 [Open Journal Systems (OJS)](https://pkp.sfu.ca/ojs/) is an open source software application for managing and publishing scholarly journals. Originally developed and released by the [Public Knowledge Project (PKP)](https://pkp.sfu.ca/) in 2001 to improve access to research, it is the most widely used open source journal publishing platform in existence, with over 34,000 journals using it worldwide.

ORCID API integration is provided through a plugin that is freely available in the OJS Plugin Gallery, and which can be used to collect and authenticate ORCID iDs for users and authors; display authenticated ORCID iDs in manuscript records; and (optional) automatically request that contributing authors provide their ORCID iDs. If configured using the ORCID member API, the plugin can also update authors’ ORCID records with published article information. More information on the plugin and how to use it can be found in PKP’s [Documentation Hub](https://docs.pkp.sfu.ca/orcid/)
