How to cite a report from a research institution

Post by nich »

This seems like it should be straightforward. I need to cite a report on global warning conducted by the Department of environment

There are no authors associated with the report.

This type of report is very common so I;m surprised there isn't a bibtex format for it.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I think you want the @TECHREPORT category; required fields are author, title, institution, year. Optional fields are type, number, address, month, note, key. For author you could fill in the department, all inside an extra set of {...}.
