Archival Resource Key (ARK) identifiers are URLs that support long-term access to information. They are similar to DOIs only that we don't know of any service that can extract bibliography information from ARKs. For this reason, if an ARK is used in an eprint field, it will only be possible to open the ARK in the browner; no lookup or extraction of biography information will be possible.

ARK identifiers are typically prefixed with "ark:/". Even though the prefix does not help identify the resource, it appears to be the standard because many websites that feature ARKs, such as archive.org, include it. For the convenience of our users and to provide them with ability to copy/paste the ark as is, we support arks with or without the prefix.
