#citationfileformat — Public Fediverse posts

Huh, I must've missed the announcement.

@swheritage is now providing citation metadata to download as #BibTeX and use via #BibLaTeX (biblatex-software) for archived software with a CITATION.cff file or codemeta.json in the root directory! 🎉

Very cool!

Very exciting to see that the #NASA #NASATOPS open science curriculum recommends CITATION.cff files in the #CitationFileFormat to provide and find the correct citation metadata for open research outputs 🚀!

The course materials themselves have their own CITATION.cff file 😎.

If you already have a CITATION.cff file in the #CitationFileFormat and want a comfortable way to update (and validate) it to enable #SoftwareCitation, @abelsiqueira from the @eScienceCenter has created another great video that walks you through the process using the cffinit web tool. 😍
