Research Tips---Be Aware of DOI
If you've been reading about published research for the past few years, you've probably noticed a new tool for permanently storing academic material :DOI (Digital Object Identifiers)--- An alphanumeric code that solves many problems for anyone searching for files on Internet. DOI means never change, it provides a permanent link to any electronic article.
Most electronic articles available have DOIs, which are usually found on the articles themselves. Doi looks like this :doi:10.1111/j.1439-0426.1997.tb00116.x
