Notes

  • Include a retrieval date only if the data set is designed to change over time. 
  • If citing existing data, cite the publication in which the data were published (e.g., a journal article or webpage) rather than the data set itself.
  • If the data is unpublished provide the source (e.g. university) if known. 
  • Check the author layout table for citing multiple authors.
