How to cite

How do I cite Språkbanken Text?

How do I cite specific resources or analyses?

Use the data citation. If a dataset (or data collection, or analysis) has a standard reference, use both that and the data citation.

That way, you acknowledge both the work of Språkbanken Text and the individuals who created the dataset or analysis.

The data citation also includes a persistent identifier (PID) of the DOI type which makes it easy to find the data, download it or explore it via our research platforms.

If you find an error in the standard reference or data citation (perhaps we missed a contributor?), let us know and we’ll correct it.
