abstract = {{Strontium isotopes are applied to a wide range of scientific fields and to different types of materials,{\textbraceright} providing valuable information foremost about provenance and age{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} but also on diagenetic processes and mixing relationships between different Sr reservoirs. The development of in situ analytical techniques{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} such as laser ablation ICP-MS{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} has improved our understanding of Sr isotope variability in several fields of application{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} because of the possibility to discriminate small-scale changes and their spatial distribution. However{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} large outputs of Sr isotope data are produced by laser ablation MC-ICP-MS systems{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} which necessitate multiple offline steps to correct and assess the data. This requires the availability of simple and user-friendly tools{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} easily manageable by non-specialists too. With this in mind{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} we developed SrDR{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} an Excel-based interactive data reduction spreadsheet ({\textquoteleft}SrDR{\textquoteright}{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} Sr-Data-Reduction) for the processing of Sr isotopes measured by LA-MC-ICP-MS. The SrDR spreadsheet is easily customizable (a) to meet user-specific analytical protocols{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} (b) for different instruments (i.e. Nu plasma vs. Neptune){\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} and (c) for diverse target materials (e.g. rare earth element enriched or depleted samples). We also include several examples relevant to low and high temperature geochemistry fields {\textendash} a fossil tooth{\textbraceleft},{\textbraceright} a modern seashell{\textbraceleft}, a speleothem sample and plagioclase crystals {\textendash} to show how different sample materials are corrected for different interfering masses.}},
