Sponsor Citations in Economics
As other RePEc services, CitEc follows the business model of the open source movement and it is able to work without funding or institutional support. The unique fixed costs are those related to the hosting of the server.
CitEc is different of other competing services like Google Citations. While GC has a lot of employees, CitEc is the work of a single person working on it only in his spare time. For more than ten years José Manuel Barrueco(Facebook | Homepage) has been developing a open citation index with the purpose of benefit the Economics research community.
Now he needs your help!. He spends around one hour a day working in this project. Which is not too much for managing a database of more than 16M records. Nevertheless, improving the services and dealing with the increasing number of user requests, requires more time and resources. For this reason, if you find the service useful, please consider to make an small contribution...
