Use this format for both print and ebook edited book chapters, including edited book chapters from academic research databases.
If the chapter has a DOI, include the chapter DOI in the reference after the publisher name.
Do not include the publisher location.
If a chapter without a DOI has a stable URL that will resolve for readers, include the URL of the chapter in the reference (as in the Thestrup example, which is from the iBog database). Do not include the name of the database in the reference.
If the chapter is from an academic research database and has no DOI or stable URL, end the book reference after the publisher name. Do not include the name of the database in the reference. The reference in this case is the same as for a print book chapter.
Include any edition information in the same parentheses as the page range of the chapter, separated with a comma.
For ebook chapters without pagination, omit the page range from the reference (as in the Thestrup example).
