At this time, neither ASU nor the ASU Library provides hosting or support services for journal publishing. However, the following resources may be useful.

Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs)

ASU does not provide DOI registration. To create a DOI, you must go through a DOI Registration Agency, such as CrossRef or DataCite in the U.S. This DOI FAQ provides more detailed information about DOI registration and pricing.
