Description

Discussed in https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/discussions/3836

Originally posted by agrogan1 January 3, 2023
Hello! Is there a way to make a quarto book citeable? The Quarto documentation, Quarto - Creating Citeable Articles, would seem to indicate that this is possible for articles but it does not seem to work for books.

In case it's helpful, my book is here, Multilevel Thinking, and my YAML is here, multilevel-thinking/_quarto.yml at main · agrogan1/multilevel-thinking · GitHub.

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Research direction

Start with the linked discussion and the Quarto citeable-articles documentation, then compare the issue reporter's _quarto.yml configuration with the existing article behavior. Done means a Quarto book can use the documented citeable-article support, with the reporter's book configuration serving as a validation case.
