This allows DOI identifiers to be assigned for scientific institutions, HEIs, libraries, journals, their issues and individual publications.
An official partnership is the key to success!
DOI or Digital Object Identifier – a unique numerical number designed to make it easier and faster to find and identify journals, their issues, articles, and other types of research materials. It consists of a prefix and a suffix. The prefix identifies the publisher or the person who generated the DOI. The suffix is associated with the individual publication and is completely unique.
Eleven companies worldwide have the right to assign DOIs. The most popular of these is Crossref. Unlike the others, the organisation has no regional restrictions. Scientific Publications, as the official sponsor of Crossref, has the right to generate and assign an international DOI index.
The identifier is stable, making it impossible to lose the material
Allows the placement of materials in international bibliographic catalogues
Gives credibility to publishers, authors, and their work as recognised by the scientific community
Increases the citation rates of materials by making them easier to find and identify
DOI is a standard scientific identifier for the international scientific community, so the need to obtain it arises for individual authors (for DOI of an article, monograph or other type of publication), and scientific journals (for assigning an identifier to the issues and articles) and organisations.
To date, there are about 11 companies and consortia with the right to create a DOI digital identifier. However, not all of them are focused on the scientific community of Kyrgyzstan. Therefore, we recommend paying attention to the activities of Crossref.
The fastest and most effective way to obtain a DOI is to contact the Scientific Publications company, which is an official sponsor of Crossref. The process of generating a digital index consists of:
Normally DOI information is placed in the source data field along with other information about the article. The numerical identifiers generated by Crossref are in the form of a hyperlink. They are recommended to indicate them when citing the material, so it is easier to find and evaluate the source from which the information for the paper was taken.
The DOI index of an article, according to the basic requirements, may be indicated next to other identifiers, such as the UDC, ISSN, metadata of the material. Within the scientometric databases Scopus or Web of Science the DOI information is placed on the page of a separate document.
An example of a DOI bibliography (APA): Willson, J. (2023). Dendritic cells rise and shine. Nature Reviews Cancer, 23(2), 55. doi:10.1038/s41568-022-00545-3
In order to find a DOI article you need to:
DOI checking is not much different from the article search process described above. However, if using this method:
In these cases, it is most likely that the DOI in the search is incorrect, the DOI does not exist, or there are technical problems with its maintenance.
