DOIs are mainly used to identify academic, professional, and government information, such as journal articles, research reports and data sets, official publications.
Citations tools uses the <a href="http://search.crossref.org/help/api" rel="nofollow ugc">CrossRef Metadata API</a> to retrieve complete publication information using the doi code as a search query. CrossRef is a part of the <a href="https://dx.doi.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">doi system</a>.
