More and more online sources have a DOI, a digital object identifier. This is a unique identification number for digital files. DOIs can be used to create a permanent link to the location of a digital file. Many academic articles now have a DOI. The DOI is usually mentioned on the webpage that appears when you click on the title of a publication. If an article has a DOI, this should be mentioned last (no full stop after).
