DOI Creation ServiceThe Library has launched a service to create DOIs for University-produced resources which are published via either the University website or White Rose Research Online repository. DOIs enable links to resources to be maintained long term and facilitate citation. The service is particularly suitable for reports and other ‘grey literature’ which are not eligible to be assigned a DOI by another organisation (e.g. a publisher). For more information and to request a DOI, please visit the DOI service web page. |
