A DOI (Document Object Identifier) is a unique identifier that identifies digital objects. Most DOIs are registered with crossref.org. If the crossref.org search method doesn't yield a DOI, check the journal on the publisher's site. The DOI may be somewhere on the first page of the article or in the article description. Some of online databases, such as Web of Science, may be used to search for articles will supply DOIs in the citations. View the full citation to see if a DOI is included. Some articles may not have a DOI, as the DOI system is a fairly recent concept.
