Identifier Pattern Scenario

Landing Page (which is a Content Resource) ➞ DOI HTTP URI

The use of Typed Links in the HTTP Link header is illustrated for the paper:

Jones, S., Van de Sompel, H., Shankar, H., Klein, M., Tobin, R., and Grover, C. Scholarly Context Adrift: Three out of Four URI References Lead to Changed Content. PLoS ONE, 11(12): e0167475 (2016). https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0167475.

This is a summary of the links that should be provided:

  • The Landing Page, which is a Content Resource, should provide a link with the cite-as relation type pointing at the HTTP URI rendering of the DOI.

https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0167475 is:
$ curl -I "https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0167475"
