Citing Eurostat data

For citing datasets, use get_bibentry() to build a bibliography that is suitable for your reference manager of choice.

When using Eurostat data in other contexts than academic publications that in-text citations or footnotes/endnotes, the following guidelines may be helpful:

  • The origin of the data should always be mentioned as "Source: Eurostat".

  • The online dataset codes(s) should also be provided in order to ensure transparency and facilitate access to the Eurostat data and related methodological information. For example: "Source: Eurostat (online data code: namq_10_gdp)"

  • Online publications (e.g. web pages, PDF) should include a clickable link to the dataset using the bookmark functionality available in the Eurostat data browser.

It should be avoided to associate different entities (e.g. Eurostat, National Statistical Offices, other data providers) to the same dataset or indicator without specifying the role of each of them in the treatment of data.
