Here is an example structure demonstrating how you might use the institution field in a @techreport entry:

@techreport{key,
institution = {...},
}

In this format, the “key” is a unique identifier for the BibTeX entry, and the “institution” field should contain the name of the institution that published the report. It is essential to provide accurate and detailed information in this field to facilitate proper citation and referencing.

Ensure to replace the {...} with the actual name of the institution when you are creating your BibTeX entries. This field helps to organize and categorize technical reports properly in your reference list.
