«Вільна наука» («Free Science») is a new platform for popularizing discoveries made by Ukrainian scientists.
Scientific institutes and institutions can use this news aggregator to easily talk about their discoveries and publish press releases, and journalists can have direct contact with representatives of scientific institutions to distribute news to the public. Registration is open to students and journalists. Readers can familiarize themselves with the content without prior registration.
The goal of «Вільна наука» is to create new opportunities for:
- scientists ( popularization of results);
- journalists (clarification of the results and verification of interpretations of the scientific works of Ukrainian scientists);
- Ukrainian and international investors (to get acquainted with the practical developments of scientists).

ORCID: new benefits and opportunities
ORCID (Open Researcher and Contributor ID) is an open, non-profit project for creating and maintaining a registry of unique researcher identifiers. ORCID is a 16-digit numeric code in which the letters of the researcher’s name are replaced by numbers, which immediately solves a number of problems: unifies pronunciation and translation in other languages, automates the identification of the author and his connection with published works.
More about ORCID opportunities was discussed at the webinar «ORCID Consortium: Advantages and Opportunities» organized by the State Scientific and Technical Library of Ukraine.
A step-by-step guide from the KPI Library will help you create an ORCID.
Every researcher should update the data on his / her professional research and scientific-technical activity in order for the information about him / her to be reliable in the digital space both at the national and world levels.
