The build problems I mentioned earlier with citeseerx have now been fixed.
The required version of secondstring is included in the citeseerx
distribution. So anyone who is interested/qualified to look at how Dspace
might be able to use citeseerx to automatically extraction citation
information can now do so. The tarball may be downloaded from
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=235179. Note that the
tarball still has the original date-time for some strange reason, even
though it is a new release.

Subject: DSpace support for citations
To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>


hello,

This is another question that demonstrates I am still learning DSpace....
what support is there for citations please? The DSpace manual hardly
mentions them at all. There is a brief mention because there is a dublin
core field for citation, but no detail is given.

The reason I am asking is that I have a need, in the digital library system
I am prototyping, to export the citations of an article or book. BibTeX
format is preferred but it would be nice to support other formats as well. I
also want to make the citations available separate from the article/book
itself. This last point is just a matter of convenience. It is handy to be
able to go straight to the references without having to view the entire PDF
of the article/book and move to the end.

I realise that the last point could be addressed by uploading a 'references'
PDF as well as the PDF for the entire article/book. That may turn out to be
enough, I am still thinking about that. But I don't think that DSpace has
enough support yet for exporting citations. Unless maybe it is just not
documented?
