Adding references

Adding references#

Adding a citation to a lecture#

QuantEcon supports multiple citation styles to accommodate different writing contexts.

Standard citations#

To add a reference to the text of a QuantEcon lecture you can use the cite role:

{cite}`<bibtex-label>`

For example

* {cite}`StokeyLucas1989`, chapter 2

is rendered in HTML and LaTeX as:

[SLP89], chapter 2

In-text citations#

For citations that are part of a sentence, use the cite:t role:

{cite:t}`<bibtex-label>`

For example

This QuantEcon lecture describes randomized response surveys in the tradition of {cite:t}`Warner1965` that are designed to protect respondents' privacy.

is rendered in HTML and LaTeX as:

This QuantEcon lecture describes randomized response surveys in the tradition of Warner [1965] that are designed to protect respondents' privacy.

When to use each style#

  • Use {cite} for standard academic citations, typically at the end of sentences or in lists

  • Use {cite:t} when the author name(s) are part of the sentence flow and you want them to appear as regular text

Adding a new reference to QuantEcon#

To add a new reference to the project, a bibtex entry needs to be added to <repo>/lectures/_static/quant-econ.bib.
