There is increasing importance of modes of scholarly communicati on that go beyond books and even beyond articles to include many other diverse forms and formats. Unique, persistent IDs are needed to increase the likelihood that all researchers’ output is represented and that this output is attributed to the correct individual researcher and the researcher’s institution. Accurate affiliation is critical to both accurately compile scholarly output in all formats and for others to form an assessment of the trustworthiness or authority of esearch output.
