Name of contribution: gcite Author's name: Matthew Tylee Atkinson and Iain Phillips Location on CTAN: /macros/latex/exptl/gcite Summary description: Citations in a more reader-friendly style License type: lppl
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package allows you to make citations in the German style, which is considered by many to be particularly reader-friendly. The citation provides a small amount of bibliographic information in a footnote on the page where each citation is made. It combines a desire to eliminate unnecessary page-turning with the look-up efficiency afforded by numeric citations. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
