DOI For Books
A DOI (Digital Object Identifier) for books serves the same purpose as for academic articles: it provides a permanent, stable link to the specific digital edition of a book, ensuring it can be reliably accessed and cited. While DOIs are commonly assigned to journal articles and research papers, many academic publishers also assign DOIs to books or book chapters, particularly in digital formats. This helps to facilitate easy referencing and retrieval. The DOI for books ensures that even if the book is moved to a different platform or its web address changes, the DOI will still lead to the correct resource.
