Thanks, Jim Hefferon Saint Michael's College ......................................................................... The following information was provided by our fellow contributor: Name of contribution: doi Author's name: Maarten Sneep Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/contrib/doi Summary description: Ensure correct hyperlinks to dx.doi.org License type: lppl Announcement text:

A minor update to the doi package, mainly bug fixes (spurious spaces). Documentation is in the style file. The doi package produces correctly formatted, hyperlinked doi numbers, even when horrible characters are used (>, <, and ; come to mind).

This package is located at http://tug.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/doi . More information is at http://tug.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=doi (if the package is new it may take a day for that information to appear).

doi – Create correct hyperlinks for DOI numbers

You can hyperlink DOI numbers to doi.org. However, some publishers have elected to use nasty characters in their DOI numbering scheme (‘<’, ‘>’, ‘_’ and ‘;’ have all been spotted). This will either upset (La)TeX, or your PDF reader. This package contains a single user-level command \doi{}, which takes a DOI number, and creates a correct hyperlink to the target of the DOI.
