refstudio is an R package that provides a complete toolkit to extract and process bibliographical references. Its aim is to facilitate evidence synthesis work and to improve reproducibility in research.

Prerequisites

You need to have some familiarity with the R programming language to use refstudio main functions.

If you don’t feel comfortable with R, we strongly recommend checking Hadley Wickham and Garrett Grolemund’s free and online book R for Data Science and the Coursera course from John Hopkins University Data Science: Foundations using R (free for audit students).

Installation

You can install refstudio with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("giperbio/refstudio")

If you use refstudio in your research, please consider citing it. We put a lot of work to build and maintain a free and open-source R package. You can find the refstudio citation below.
