Chicago Manual of Style DOI

clynch96
The Chicago Manual of Style (Author-Date) template in Zotero automatically prefixes all DOI's with http://dx.doi.org when generating bibliographies. According to Rule 15.9 of the Chicago Manual of Style, the proper format for listing a DOI is to add at the end of the bibliography item "doi:" in all lowercase and no space between the colon and the DOI number. The manual makes no reference to including the URL that Zotero automatically inserts.

    You're looking at the last edition. From CMoS, 17th edition, 15.9:

    Liu, Jui-Ch’i. 2015. “Beholding the Feminine Sublime: Lee Miller’s War Photography.” Signs 40, no. 2 (Winter): 308–19. https://doi.org/10.1086/678242.

    (This is also in line with universally agreed upon DOI display guidelines, btw.)
