The aim of the new guide is primarily to modernize and standardize some of the existing rules relating to the citation of online materials. Below are some of the most frequently encountered changes. To see the entire 24 page <em>Guide<\/em>, ask at the reference desk or look next to the <em>Manual<\/em> in the Main and Reference Collections under call number BF76.7 .A63 2007.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/library.uww.edu\/guides\/index.html#cite\">Citing References: <acronym title=\"American Psychological Association\">APA<\/acronym> Style<\/a> has been updated to reflect changes relevant to the extant examples.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><acronym title=\"Digital Object Identifiers\">DOIs<\/acronym><\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>When provided, Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) are used instead of URLs and database names in citations. A <acronym title=\"Digital Object Identifier\">DOI<\/acronym> is a unique number assigned to a journal article, which is independent of the location of the article. It will remain the same no matter where the article is found, and will provide a persistent link to the online article. To find an article with a <acronym title=\"Digital Object Identifier\">DOI<\/acronym>, enter the number into a <acronym title=\"Digital Object Identifier\">DOI<\/acronym> resolver such as <a href=\"http:\/\/crossref.org\">crossref.org<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li>When no <acronym title=\"Digital Object Identifier\">DOI<\/acronym> is provided, use the URL of the journal&#8217;s homepage in the citation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Retrieval Dates<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>No longer required in citations when there there is a publication date listed. So, for online journal articles no retrieval date is necessary. <\/li>\n<li>Required when there is no publication date listed or when the content is likely to be changed, such as in Wikipedia.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Issue Numbers<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Always include the issue number for journal articles when available. This is no longer dependent on the pagination scheme used.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Journal article from library database with DOI assigned<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stultz, J.
