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:

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.
Many
thanks,
Jen
