Giving credit where credit is due:
Using proper citations on DOE publications

All Laboratory scientific and technical publications must carry a standard credit line on the title page showing the funding source, the DOE/Laboratory contract number, and any applicable Laboratory non-DOE contract number. When the funding source is DOE, the credit line must include two levels of organization within DOE, as in the following examples:

This work was supported by the Director, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC03-76SF00098.

This work was supported by the Assistant Secretary for Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, Office of Building Technology, State, and Community Programs, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC03-76SF00098.

All open literature publications (e.g., journal articles and conference papers) must carry this same credit line somewhere in the body of the paper, preferably in an acknowledgments section. Conference papers must also carry this credit line on a title page for submission to DOE.

All Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD)-supported research must carry a standard credit line showing the following with the DOE/Laboratory contract number. Only one level of organization is required.

This work was supported by the Director, Office of Science, of the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC03-76SF00098.

In Laboratory publications reporting work supported by more than one DOE organization or supported in part by a non-DOE organization (e.g., federal or state agency, private institute, or commercial firm), acknowledgment of this support (including the contract number) is required. When work has been carried out in collaboration with other DOE contractors, all contractors must be identified with contract numbers.

For abstracts, where space is limited, it is acceptable to use an abbreviated credit line, as in the following example:

Supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under Contract No. DE-AC03-76SF00098.
