Citation information for PyPDF2 #1475

Closed sickofhoneysuckle closed 1 year ago

sickofhoneysuckle commented 1 year ago

Explanation

Hello, I was wondering how I could cite PyPDF2 in my research paper. I used the software to convert part of a corpus for an NLP project. BibTex formatting would be preferred! Thanks!

MartinThoma commented 1 year ago

@sickofhoneysuckle Thanks for considering it! We need to discuss this internally (see #1476). How fast do you need it?

sickofhoneysuckle commented 1 year ago

Thanks for responding! I'm submitting a first draft to my PI, but I'll leave it blank for now and communicate with her that a citation is forthcoming (: I would need it by the end of the month if possible.

MartinThoma commented 1 year ago

In case we don't merge #1476 until then, an acceptable one might be:

@misc{pypdf2,
 title         = {The {PyPDF2} library, version 2},
 author        = {Mathieu Fenniak and {PyPDF2 Contributors}},
 year          = {2022},
 url           = {https://pypdf2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/meta/CONTRIBUTORS.html}
}

I very much appreciate it thank you! Also thank you for all your work on this package. I wouldn't have been able to create a corpus without it (:
