  As part of its scholarly data efforts, the Internet Archive (IA) releases a
first version of a citation graph dataset, named refcat, derived from scholarly
publications and additional data sources. It is composed of data gathered by
the fatcat cataloging project (the catalog that underpins IA Scholar), related
web-scale crawls targeting primary and secondary scholarly outputs, as well as
metadata from the Open Library project and Wikipedia. This first version of the
graph consists of over 1.3B citations. We release this dataset under a CC0
Public Domain Dedication, accessible through Internet Archive. The source code
used for the derivation process, including exact and fuzzy citation matching,
is released under an MIT license. The goal of this report is to describe
briefly the current contents and the derivation of the dataset.
