You can also check the "CrossRef" website (http://www.crossref.org/SimpleTextQuery/). If you want to do a few simple searches, register your email address with the site and then copy and paste the article citation. If there's a DOI avialable it will list it as a URL link.

Subject: [SERIALST] DOI numbers

Hi, everyone. 

I am helping a professor to locate DOIs for articles listed in reference in an article she is publishing.  There are a few that I cannot find DOIs for.  Is it possible that an article might not have a DOI?
