We don't go into the detail of listing references, however we do list the sponsors/funder of the research. We list it in DCQ as a contributor. Here's an example: http://scholarsmine.mst.edu/post_prints/MeanSootVolumeFractionsinTurbule ntHydrocarbon_09007dcc804f2b6a.html Amanda Piegza Institutional Repository and Digital Collections Librarian Missouri University of Science and Technology Curtis Laws Wilson Library Phone: 573-341-4221 Fax: 573-341-4233 Visit Scholars' Mine, Missouri University of Science and Technology's institutional repository, at: http://scholarsmine.mst.edu/ ________________________________ From: Repositories discussion list [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Delasalle, Jenny Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2008 5:22 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: harvard references in metadata Dear all, I'm writing to ask about other repositories who operate a mediated metadata policy. Do you go to the level of detail of including the references from journal articles in your metadata records? If so, do you re-format those references into Harvard style? Is this policy proving to be useful/successful? I ask because we're doing mediated metadata, and the biggest expenditure of time for our cataloguer is formatting these references for the metadata record. I'm wondering if there is a way to automate this process, extracting the references from an MS Word or pdf file, to turn them into a properly formatted Harvard bibliography. I'm also wondering whether we're the only ones going to this level of detail or not, and what other repository managers think about this topic. Please do reply to me and I'll summarise responses for the list.
