DOI Nedir?
The DOI number, which is short for Digital Object Identifier and stands for Digital Object Identifier, is a unique numbering and access system that has been rapidly used recently, providing access to data published on the internet. Each DOI is specific, that is, it is specific to the data received. A material with a DOI number can be accessed uninterruptedly and quickly at any time. A DOI number is a number that can be obtained for any type of data that comes to mind, such as a journal, article, book, e-journal, graphic, notification, brochure, picture, photograph, etc. Getting a DOI for the work you publish is very important for the work to be included in different search engines, to be permanent, and to be accessible from a single address.
What is a DOI Number and What Does It Mean?
If we define an example DOI number; 10.XXXXX/abbreviation.1. The number 10.XXXXX in this number is called the prefix number. If we explain the meaning of this DOI number: The 10 given at the beginning of the DOI number is the common number at the beginning of all DOI numbers. It does not change. The XXXXX following this number is a specific number given by Crossref to the publisher who published the material. The abbreviation following this number is the abbreviation name of the institution, journal, book, etc. that published the data. The 1 following this abbreviation is the serial number given to the publications and changes with the DOI number received for each published publication.
