2.1.0

• added getter function for NERD database: get_nerd
• added getter function for BDA database: get_bda

2.0.0

• the default lookup tables are now stored in the package and not downloaded from Github any more (#128)
• some changes in the internal functioning of the lookup methods (#128)
• introduced inspect_lookup_country and inspect_lookup_material which replace the automatic printing in fix_database_country_name and classify_material (#128)

1.3.0

general changes

• added a CITATION file (see citation("c14bazAAR"))

new features

• added new options for the deduplication function (see ?duplicates) (#63)
