Hack! I learned something news two days ago. A nursing faculty chatted with me in the hallway. She asked me what is "doi" number? She said that she realized that most databases now include the doi number on the front page of the full-text article.
After a ffew click ... Voila! Doi stands for digital object images. Some of the open access scholarly journals are available on the web. However, agter a certain time of period, the links might not be working. With the doi number, researcher can retrieve the article via crossref.org.
According to the APA style 6th edition, it requires to include the doi number at the end of the citation.
I am wondering what will be next after "doi"? - Embracing the technology!.
