Abstract

This chapter shows another alternative approach of building citation database and retrieval system using the spreadsheet program, Microsoft Excel. McIntyre built a custom database based on the Clothing and Textile Research Journal (CTRJ), covering from 1990 to 2006 as part of his master’s thesis. The database includes all the author citations, citations sorted by article, and the top cited author’s cocitation frequencies.
