Create a BibTeX citation for citing the Harvard Repository and update name of Dataverse Project in HOLLIS

[sbarbosadataverse]

This BibTeX citation would acknowledge the Harvard Dataverse itself and not just a dataset.

Sample of what a BibTeX citation should contain attached

LTS has a "URN" for us but not sure we need to have MIT attached to this URN anymore? @lenwiz This is what the lawyer needs to help us determine:

https://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:hul.eresource:harvmitd"

Also, note that the HOLLIS URN needs updating @jggautier :

"This is the URN used in HOLLIS: http://id.lib.harvard.edu/alma/990121255650203941/catalog" ---->This points to the software project, where the name is out of date by the way. It's no longer The Dataverse Network. It's The Dataverse Project.

[sbarbosadataverse]

@pdurbin since you answered the last BibTex inquiry in google Dataverse and this is what they actually needed for a citation.

Also, note that the HOLLIS URN needs updating @jggautier :

"This is the URN used in HOLLIS: http://id.lib.harvard.edu/alma/990121255650203941/catalog" ---->This points to the software project, where the name is out of date by the way. It's no longer The Dataverse Network. It's The Dataverse Project.

I just completed Hollis's feedback survey, leaving my contact info and asking that the catalog's record at http://id.lib.harvard.edu/alma/990121255650203941/catalog be updated.

@sbarbosadataverse hmm, there are two different things to reference, right?

• the software
• the service run by Harvard

Yes, it looks like the Bibtex above would be a good way to reference the service, once the info has been updated.

Looking at that inquiry again ( https://groups.google.com/g/dataverse-community/c/Dy6EB_Su1i0/m/YZRj1CceAAAJ ), I assume the person wanted to reference the software.

[sbarbosadataverse]

@pdurbin No, they wanted to reference "Harvard Dataverse" the actual repository, in the RT ticket they sent into support:

[pdurbin]

@sbarbosadataverse oh! Obviously, you're absolutely right. I hadn't seen that RT ticket. Thanks!

[djbrooke]

@sbarbosadataverse @pdurbin - this tripped me up as well. The question came into Support and also to the Google Group, and the phrasing was a bit different, with one being the more general "Dataverse" and the other mentioning "Harvard Dataverse" specifically.

@sbarbosadataverse once there's a citation I'm happy to add it to dataverse.org.

[pdurbin]

Just so I'm clear, should we do the following?

• Add/verify the following citation for the SOFTWARE to https://dataverse.org: Gary King. 2007. “An Introduction to the Dataverse Network as an Infrastructure for Data Sharing.” Sociological Methods and Research, 36, Pp. 173–199. Copy at https://j.mp/2owjuRr
• Add the following citation for the SERVICE (Harvard Dataverse) to https://support.dataverse.harvard.edu (once it has been updated and finalized): IQSS Dataverse Network. (2007). Harvard University. http://id.lib.harvard.edu/alma/990121255650203941/catalog

I say add/verify for the SOFTWARE citation because I already updated https://dataverse.org/about (after talking to Gary) because in the thread above the person said it would be helpful to have this information on the website. Here's a screenshot (please note the highlighted text in blue):

[sbarbosadataverse]

@pdurbin nothing to do yet because I am verifying the Harvard-MIT relationship and the Library needs to update the Harvard Dataverse Network to the Dataverse Project. I will follow-up on next steps, here, when I have them. Thanks The software itself also has a citation from the Library with a URN. We shouldn't cite the paper alone. But I will clarify all this and update here again.

I haven't received a reply about changing the name of the record in HOLLIS for the Dataverse Project. I sent another email to ask about changing the name. See the email in RT at https://help.hmdc.harvard.edu/Ticket/Display.html?id=366149
