Improve APA citation format to include the DOI for an article
APA citation format should include the DOI information for journal articles. As recommended by APA.

However citations from Primo do not include a DOI.
We note that Summon is able to do this and hope that the defect be resolved.
eg from Primo
Hooper, L. (2012). ExLibris's Primo and Musical Research. Music Reference Services Quarterly, 15(2), 119-124.
and from Summon
Hooper, L. (2012). ExLibris's primo and musical research. Music Reference Services Quarterly, 15(2), 119. doi:10.1080/10588167.2012.672088
Thank you for this idea, with the enhancement of supporting Citation Style Language (CSL) in Primo, the mapping of data was improved. The DOI is included for APA style taken from CSL official repository

I agree with Anon comment (May 25) to include whenever available, and not just for APA.

APA style requires a DOI. Therefore, Primo needs to incorporate this functionality. Users care about accurate, complete citations!

We would like to see DOI information added to Primo whenever available. Not only for APA citations.
