5“CJK” Challenges• In China, the 100 most common last names areshared by over three-quarters of the country’spopulation.
• In Korea, the 5 most common last names alone
account for more than half of the population.
• Japanese last names are much more diverse but there
is no “middle name” convention, which makes it
impossible to differentiate when two or more people
share the same first & last name.

How you can support• Research tools proliferated in the rapid
innovation in digital scholarship• Open science policy and initiatives require
new paradigm and infrastructure• ORCID is not a researcher profile systembut part of the infrastructure, linked withmany other identifiers• It requires support beyond traditional
library functions; collaboration is the key
