Fund MDOI
infrastructure
MDOI is built to keep scholarly identifiers persistent, open, and free. Your contribution sustains the registry, resolver, and metadata services that researchers and institutions depend on.
Why this matters
Persistent identifiers are the backbone of reproducible research. When they break, citations become dead links and scholarly records are lost forever. MDOI exists to prevent that, and we need your help to keep it running.
Resolver uptime
Funds go toward server capacity to maintain 99.9% uptime for the MDOI resolution service used by institutions worldwide.
Security & compliance
Regular audits, TLS hardening, and GDPR-aligned data practices protect every researcher's metadata record.
Open-source development
APIs, crosswalk tools, and integrations are built in the open — your donation accelerates community-driven features.
Global access
No paywall, no registration required to resolve an MDOI. We keep it free for researchers regardless of institution or geography.
Make a contribution
Every gift, large or small, keeps the registry running.
