If an article has a DOI (digital object identifier) include it in your reference list. Hyperlinked DOIs are useful for readers who do not have access to your institution’s subscription databases.
You do not have to hyperlink the DOI in your reference list but it’s recommended. A hyperlinked (https://doi.org/) will make a reader to a journal article or a publisher’s homepage (see APA Style DOIs and URLs for more information).
