get_citation allows the user to preview the what the citation will look like. The Harper's Ferry Style Guide recommends using the Chicago Manual of Style for formatting citations. The citation is formatted according to to a modified version of the Chicago Manual of Style's Author-Date journal article format because currently there is no Chicago Manual of Style format specified for datasets or data packages. In compliance with DataCite's recommendations regarding including DOIs in citations, the citation displays the entire DOI as https://www.doi.org/10.58370/xxxxxx".
