APA

• Both DOI and URL are included as hyperlinks. Use "http" or "https", just make it consistent 
• Ask your faculty which format to use: the plain text (black not underlined) or the word-processing (blue underlined)
• Do not include "Retrieved from" or "Accessed from" before the DOI and URL
• Do not add a period after the DOI and URL
• It is acceptable to shorted long DOIs and URLs
  • For DOI use shortDOI
  • For URL use TinyURL

• Always include a DOI regardless if the work is online or print
• If both DOI and URL are included, only use the DOI
• If there is an URL but no DOI:
  • If the work is a website: use the URL (make sure it works)
  • If the work is online and it is from a database: reference like a print work 
  • For works in databases available only in that database (for example UpToDate or ERIC) include the name of the database and the work's number. Example: Long, J. (2019). Children and development. Education, 13(1), 80-98. Retrieved from ERIC. (ED1234567). 

The Digital Object Identifier (DOI) is a unique number that provides a persistent link to scholarly information. 

The format for the DOI is always https://doi.org/10. and then other numbers/letters

Example: Reiter, K. (2014). A  look at best practices for patient education in outpatient spine surgery. AORN Journal, 99(3), 376-384. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aorn.2014.01.008

The format for the DOI is always https://doi.org/10. and then other numbers/letters

If the DOI has extra letters/numbers, simply delete them. 

Example: https://doi.org.proxy.sru.klnpa.org/10.1037/dev30098

Delete the extra information: https://doi.org.proxy.sru.klnpa.org/10.1037/dev30098

This is what you will use: https://doi.org/10.1037/dev30098

• In articles, look at the first page of the PDF
• In online books, look at the Copyright page
• Check CrossRef. Use the "Search Metadata" tab
• Ask a Librarian

If an online/print article in a scholarly journal, magazine, newspaper do not have a DOI end the citation with the page number and a period.

Example: Jones, M. (1989). The fashion of the cape: Comics and attires. Journal of Fashion, 34(3), 50-65.
