Reproductive Transparency Now (RTN) is a registered 503(c) non-profit, volunteer-run organization that engages in operations focused on protesting and raising awareness about anti-abortion crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs), which create harmful barriers to abortion access in all 50 states. One of RTN’s tasks is to manually record citations from informational pamphlets to identity commonly-cited articles and investigate potential misuse of citations and associated claims. To accelerate this process, TechTeam will create a program that uses scripting, Google Drive/Sheets APIs, and other methods to automatically catalog pamphlets, citations, and any relevant information. If possible within the allotted quarter, TechTeam would also like to provide functionality to generate a visual “network” of the relationships between citations, their authors, and the pamphlets that cite them.
