    Displaying Citation Attributes in Analytics Reports

    Alma allows you to add attributes to citations. These attributes are configurable and can be grouped into attribute types. You can display the citation attributes in an Analytics report by configuring the Citation Attribute fields of the Reading List Citation dimension of the Course Reserves subject area.
