What is a DOI?

DOI stands for Digital Object Identifier.  A DOI is a unique alphanumeric string that is assigned to a source.  Look for the Digital Object Identifier (DOI) when searching for electronic database articles and ebooks.  Be sure to include the DOI at the end of your citation. 

DOI Examples:

• https://doi.org/xxxxx
• https://doi.org/10.18666/TPE-2019-V76-I3-8757
   

DOI Guidelines from APA (p.

298-300):

• Include the DOI when citing print and electronic articles and books (if available)
• Always place the DOI at the end of the citation
• Include a DOI for all works that have a DOI, regardless of whether you used the online or the print version of the work.

• If a print work does not have a DOI, do not include any DOI or URL in the reference list
• Do not add a period after the DOI in the reference list
• If an electronic work has both a DOI and a URL, include only the DOI
• If an online work has a URL but no DOI, include the URL in the reference list
