The Production Editor may apply some minor variations to APA to facilitate screen reading
of the online version. Wherever possible, insert URLs for references. This is an important
service to readers, and gives search engines the most reliable way to increment citation
counts. However, use publisher URLs or DOIs (if available); do not use URLs from third
party database services such as ProQuest. Date of viewing may be omitted for journal and
proceedings URLs considered to be of high reliability.
