Revision of The capture and encoding of bibliographic reference information from Wed, 2007-05-30 15:16

Bibliographic content

The Web Revisions system in general would need to be able to handle bibliographic references.

Content added via the main data input process

The requirements for this are still to be confirmed.

Content added via parsing of existing documents

The data import system would ideally be able to recognise, parse and annotate bibliographic references within input documents, probably for later extraction by the analyser and addition to the data warehouse.

It seems wise to look for existing components which could be used to carry out this step, either as a pre or post GoldenGATE stage in the data flow. (Can external components be easy called from within GG?)

There is an existing perl library for reference extraction ParaTools - see Rod Page's demonstration of a reference parsing service.
