REFERENCES

(New method of reference for online publications)

Since online materials can potentially change URL's, APA recommends providing a
Digital Object Identifier (DOI), when it is available, as opposed to the URL.

Example:

Author, A.A. (Date of publication). Title of article. Title of Journal, volume number.
doi:0000000/000000000

Consult APA 6th edition for all citations and references.
