Finding the DOI
The APA format of citations requires a DOI (digital object identifier). This video will help you locate the DOI.
From Perdue OWL: "Because online materials can potentially change URLs, APA recommends providing a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), when it is available, as opposed to the URL. DOIs are an attempt to provide stable, long-lasting links for online articles. They are unique to their documents and consist of a long alphanumeric code. Many—but not all—publishers will provide an article's DOI on the first page of the document."
Crossref.org Metadata search can help locate the DOI if you cannot find it.
