If you are submitting to CRAN, the relevant guidelines can be found in the repository policies at https://CRAN.R-project.org/web/packages/policies.html: > Citations in the ‘Description’ field of the DESCRIPTION file should be in > author-year style, followed by a DOI or ISBN for published materials, or a > URL otherwise. Preferably, the year and identifier would be enclosed, > respectively, in parentheses and angle brackets. Example: Einstein et al. (1935) <doi:10.1103/PhysRev.47.777>.
