About This Source Type
E-books are cited in ACS style similarly to print books, with the addition of a DOI, URL, or platform name (such as Kindle or Google Books). The format includes author(s), title, edition, publisher, year, and access information.
Key Formatting Tips

- 2Include the platform name (Kindle, VitalSource) if there is no DOI
- 3Prefer a DOI over a URL if both are available
