Available at http://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/P64BRThe Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City built a LaTeX file for acquired data so economists could copy and paste the data citations into their preferred word processing program, which is LaTeX. Copy and paste citations exist for traditional academic articles and books from places like Citation Machine or Google Scholar, which provides researchers with the code they need for various citation styles and word processing programs, including LaTeX. We could not identify a similar plugin for datasets. We reviewed all active contracts and open data sources for publication permissions, restrictions or limitations, post-termination rights, and specific data citation guidelines. Information was then compiled and made available on a private intranet site to avoid violation of non-disclosure agreements. Citation information was translated into LaTeX scripting in Modified Chicago Style when specific citation requirements were not indicated by the Licensor. This poster will explain that process, provide a template for data citations and their LaTeX scripting, and a LaTeX file for publicly available data.
