Add-on summary

Use this add-on to quickly resolve DOI and ShortDOI codes via any one of several methods: add-on button, right-click on selected text, or address bar with keyword: doi.

DOI Resolver packs some great additional features, too:

  1. Generate QR codes which can be scanned by smartphones to share a publication
  2. Automatically convert DOI codes on web pages into links (optional)
  3. Specify your own DOI resolver URL (useful if your institution provides a proxy service)
  4. Generate formatted citations for publications
  5. Maintain a history of viewed DOIs

No user data is collected by this add-on and no information is sent back to the author.

This is an open source project. https://github.com/mdmower/doi-resolver

Address bar usage: Type doi and press the space key. Now you can input a DOI code and press enter to retrieve the web destination.
