Dear Susan,
probably not what you intended to hear but for the record, we are
dynamically creating citations from the metadata fetched by REST API
using a javascript library.
This way, we can easily add new citation formats, display citations on
external sites, add additional information and other things.
Example citation:
https://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/repository/xmlui/handle/11234/LRT-1478
The citation part is not really complicated but it is integrated into
our tool and therefore, cannot be reused easily [1].
However, I would like to mention another approach which would solve this
in a generic way for repositories using the handle system.
If DSpace returns specific metadata (title, authors, year, ...) for the
handle records themselves [2,3], you could use that for e.g., creating
the citation.
It is an analogy to the DOI minimal metadata set (different for
different types) but stored transparently in the PID record itself. With
minimal effort, it could be used for other services e.g., simple
searchable metadata databases. If you find it interesting, you should
read [4] - not sure about that specific implementation but the idea of
having the semantics included in the metadata is important.
Best,
Jozef

Hi-
Does anyone display the citation in the item view along with the URI,
Abstract, etc?
