+Reference data comes from two main sources: explicit bibliographic metadata and
+PDF extraction. The bibliographic metadata is taken from fatcat, which itself
+harvests and imports web accessible sources such as Crossref, Pubmed, Arxiv,
+Datacite, DOAJ, dblp and others into its catalog (as the source permits, data
+is processed continously or in batches). Reference data from PDF documents has
+been extracted with GROBID\footnote{GROBID v0.5.5}, with the TEI-XML results
+being cached locally in a key-value store accessible with an S3 API. Archived
+PDF documents result from dedicated web-scale crawls of scholarly domains
+conducted with
+Heritrix\footnote{\url{https://github.com/internetarchive/heritrix3}} and a
+variety of seed lists targeting journal homepages, repositories, dataset
+providers, aggregators, web archives and other venues. A processing pipeline
+merges catalog data from the primary database and cached values in key-value
+stores and generates the set of about 2.5B references documents, which
+currently serve as an input for the citation graph derivation pipeline.

 Overall, a map-reduce style~\citep{dean2010mapreduce} approach is
