Open Journal Systems (OJS)
OJS is a free and open-source software (FOSS) application for managing and publishing scholarly journals. Originally developed and released by the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) in 2002 to improve access to research, it is the most widely used FOSS journal publishing platform in existence, with over 30,000 journals using it worldwide.
ORCID API integration is provided through a plugin that is freely available in the OJS Plugin Gallery, 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.

Cambia: The Lens
The Lens is a project of the global non-profit Cambia, which provides free and open tools to improve the use of science in solving important problems. The Lens serves global patent and scholarly knowledge as a public resource to make science and technology enabled problem solving more effective, efficient and inclusive.
The Lens-ORCID integration is implemented through Lens Profiles, which are composite author/inventor profiles that are auto-generated based on the public ORCID record using the ORCID iD as the linking identifier and enhanced with aggregated data from The Lens. Anyone can create a Lens account and link their ORCID account to create and manage your Lens Profile. Using your Lens profile, you can easily find and claim your scholarly works or patents and sync these with your ORCID Record. See the Lens Profiles support post for more information on linking your ORCID account, claiming and syncing your work to ORCID, and managing your Lens Profile.
