A digital object identifier (DOI) is a character string (a "digital identifier") used to uniquely identify an object such as an electronic document. Metadata about the object is stored in association with the DOI name and this metadata may include a location, such as a URL, where the object can be found. The DOI for a document is permanent, whereas its location and other metadata may change. Referring to an online document by its DOI provides more stable linking than simply referring to it by its URL, because if its URL changes, the publisher need only update the metadata for the DOI to link to the new URL.

The DOI is an internationally recognized open standard developed to enable any specific piece of content (e.g., news article, video, photo, piece of music, or software routine) to be located and linked to, regardless of physical location. As a linking tool, DOIs supplement URLs in many ways.
