The purpose of this timely and stimulating book is to thoroughly prepare students, early researchers, and career scholars in establishing their digital identity online. Broadly defined, digital identity is one's online history - that is, it is any trail a person has left in his or her life that is now online.

Moreover, a well-designed digital presence can help build networks which can lead to collaborations, increased research, and grants. In addition, having a well-managed digital identity helps an academic engage with the public by strategically disseminating one's knowledge to students, public, and the media.

Whether readers are new in the field of research and publishing, or have a well-established portfolio of written literature, this handy title will provide vital guidance in establishing a digital presence, covering a wide range of issues. Key topics discussed, for example, include academic digital platforms and tools to consider when using them, working with academic librarians, social media platforms, choosing digital identity management tools like Open Researcher and Contributor ID or ORCID, the importance of author metrics and the h-index, and maintaining and curating a professional website, to name just several areas discussed.
