The citation library

The citation library is your practice's own list of reviewed references, such as the guidelines and drug references you rely on. It starts empty: Terra does not bundle medical recommendations.

Who can do what

• Clinicians and assistants can read published citations.
• Registering sources and publishing, correcting or withdrawing citations needs a clinician who also manages the practice.

Register a source

1. Open Library → Clinical evidence → Manage evidence → Register source.
2. Enter the source's name, class (public health, guideline, literature, drug label or licensed reference) and its exact HTTPS host.
3. Record the rights basis: link only, permitted excerpt or licensed. Add a reference, review deadline and, for licensed material, the expiry date.
4. Confirm with a reason.

The rights you record are your practice's assertions. Terra does not verify licences.

Create and publish a citation

1. Create a citation draft for the source. Add the canonical URL, publication date or version, evidence type, jurisdiction, population and any limits on applicability.
2. For sources that permit excerpts, add the excerpt and where it is located. Link-only sources cannot store excerpts.
3. Review and publish. Both the content review and a current-rights confirmation are required.

A saved draft stays invisible to everyone else until it is published.

Keeping citations current

• A correction is a new draft that you publish with an explanation. The previous version stays live until then.
• Withdraw, retract or supersede a citation with a reason. That is final for that card.
• If a source's registration changes, an overdue review date passes or rights expire, its citations disappear from ordinary view until a manager reviews and republishes them.

From evidence research

Passages found by evidence research can be saved as unpublished, link-only drafts here when their host is a registered source. They carry the research date and query, but no passage text or AI summary.
