Items published on a regular basis, such as journals, magazines and newspapers, are known as serials or periodicals. Include the same elements as for a book, but exclude the publication information and add the volume, issue and page number(s) instead.
Each reference may include the following elements:
A Digital Object Identifier (DOI) is a unique alphanumeric string that is used to identify a certain source (typically online journal articles). When used in a reference, DOI is written with a URL prefix (with the secure https).
Example: https://doi.org/10.1108/09596111211258900
Please note:
When exporting citations from a database, check if the Holmesglen proxy is in the DOI URL. If so, it needs to be removed. E.g. https://dx.doi.org.ezproxy.holmesglen.edu.au/10.1057/abm.2015.9 This must be changed to: https://doi.org/10.1057/abm.2015.9
Here is an example showing where to find and spot citation information on a journal article’s title page within a database. To cite and reference this information correctly, please see the page for electronic journals.
