Peculiarities of creating author profiles in some databases and assigning authors’ unique author’s identifier (ID) have been studied. Websites and scientific portals where scientific-pedagogical workers can post information about themselves and their scientific achievements has been considered: Google Scholar service «Bibliographic References», Publons, ORCID, ResearchGate and others.
