Request a Digital Object Identifier (DOI)

A Digital Object Identifier (DOI) is a persistent identifier that uniquely identifies an object, such as a research paper or book. MSUM is a member of Crossref, a DOI registration agency, that allows us to manage DOI creation and registration services for non-published works. 

DOIs are a valuable tool that can improve the discoverability, credibility, visibility, and overall impact of your work. 

Reach out to oer@mnstate.edu for more information or to request your OER be registered with a DOI.
