Crossref tests a broad sample of DOIs to ensure resolution. For each journal crawled, a sample of DOIs that equals 5% of the total DOIs for the journal up to a maximum of 50 DOIs is selected. The selected DOIs span prefixes and issues.
The results are recorded in Crawler reports, which are accessed from the Depositor Report expanded view. If a title has been crawled, the last crawl date is shown in the appropriate column. Crawled DOIs that generate errors will appear as a bold link:
Select the 'Last Crawl Date' link to view a Crawler Status Report for a title:
The Crawler Status Report lists the following:
