CrossRef is the official DOI registration agency of the international DOI Foundation. It was launched in 2000 and includes over 900 voting members and publishers who represent over 3000 societies and publishers. The organization includes metadata services and on the front page a resolver so DOI strings that are not hyperlinked will connect directly to the resource to determine what it is.
