Information on Perma

"Perma.cc is a service, currently in beta, that allows users to create citation links that will never break. When a user creates a Perma.cc link, Perma.cc archives a copy of the referenced content, and generates a link to an unalterable hosted instance of the site. Regardless of what may happen to the original source, if the link is later published by a journal using the Perma.cc service, the archived version will always be available through the Perma.cc link."

Here's an article by Jonathan Zittrain of Harvard, one of the developers of perma.cc: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2329161.

Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) are another means of circumventing link rot. Here's on article on DOIs from Ben Keele of IU McKinney School of Law: http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1577074

Boston College has a good handout on the difference between DOI, Handles, and Perma on their LibGuide at http://lawguides.bc.edu/perma.
