A couple of recent posts - from A couple of recent posts - from at Jefferson University and IFST at Univ of Delaware- note that the AMA and APA style guides now recommend using a DOI, if one is assigned, in a journal article citation.
A citation in the APA style with a DOI would be:
Conley, D., Pfeiffera, K. M., & Velez, M. (2007). Explaining sibling differences in achievement and behavioral outcomes: The importance of within- and between-family factors. Social Science Research36(3), 1087-1104. doi:10.1016/j.ssresearch.2006.09.002
In the AMA style a reference would be:
Kitajima TS, Kawashima SA, Watanabe Y. The conserved kinetochore protein shugoshin protects centromeric cohesion during meiosis. Nature. 2004;427(6974):510-517. doi:10.1038/nature02312
This is great news. I haven’t looked at the full style guides but it’s not clear if information is given about linking DOIs via http://0-dx.doi.org.wam.leeds.ac.uk/
Information on the APA Style Guide is available - http://0-apastyle.apa.org.wam.leeds.ac.uk/ with specific info on electronic references, URLs and DOIs and here is the AMA info.
This raises the existential question of a DOI as a URI. Is

unnecessary or redundant?
