I am new here but I have been reading along for couple of months now. My biggest problem at the moment is to cite internet sources especially internet webpages.   In my current paper I would like to quote the "British National Corpus". But because of my settings I always get "Corpus, B. N. (2001)" in my bibliography. Is there a way to change that only for that particular case? I would like to get "British National Corpus (2001): Url: . Accessed: 05.04.2015". Unfortunately, "lastchecked" does not appear in my bibliography.   Here my bib-file:      @article{BNC,     Author = {British National Corpus},     Date-Added = {2015-05-04 14:58:49 +0000},     Date-Modified = {2015-05-04 15:10:16 +0000},     Lastchecked = {04.05.2015},     Url = {http://www.natcorp.ox.ac.uk},     Year = {2001},     Bdsk-Url-1 = {http://www.natcorp.ox.ac.uk}}   Here my settings:  \usepackage[style=apa,         apabackref=true,         backend=biber,         hyperref=true,         maxnames=1,         maxcitenames=6,         maxbibnames=99,         sorting=debug,         natbib=true,         language=ngerman,         doi=true,         url=true         ]{biblatex}    \DeclareLanguageMapping{ngerman}{ngerman-apa}  \DefineBibliographyStrings{ngerman}{andothers={et\ al\adddot}}  \addbibresource{lit1.bib}   \NewBibliographyString{retrieved}  \DefineBibliographyStrings{ngerman}{retrieved={Letzter Zugriff am}}  \usepackage{url}  \setcounter{biburlnumpenalty}{100}  \setcounter{biburlucpenalty}{100}  \setcounter{biburllcpenalty}{100}    I have changed my bib-file and added the {{-brackets to the author.  article{BNC, Author = {{{British National Corpus}}}, Date-Added = {2015-05-04 14:58:49 +0000}, Date-Modified = {2015-05-04 16:37:05 +0000}, Url = {natcorp.ox.ac.uk}, Urldate = {2015-05-04}, Year = {2001}, Bdsk-Url-1 = {natcorp.ox.ac.uk}} –   Unfortunately, I got this:  Entity: line 1944: parser error : Extra content at the end of the document &lt;bcf:field&gt;title&lt;   And then I cannot compile the file.   I have just seen that there were three {{{ before that is because my BibDesk add one { to each entry automatically. I have fixed that so I only got two {{ now. But I still got the same error.  When I compile the file it says:   bbl:95: Paragraph ended before \name was complete. &lt;to be read again&gt; \par l.95?   However, line 95 is empty in my file.

I want to list a company name in the author field of a bibliographic entry:  @book{CUDA,   author    = {NVIDIA Corporation},   title     = {NVIDIA CUDA Compute Unified Device Architecture Programming Guide},   publisher = {NVIDIA Corporation},   year      = {2007} }   But the entry keeps showing up "N. Corporation".  Is there a way to get the full author name to show up?  I'm currently using the siam BibTEX style.

I want to produce the following with LaTeX/BibTeX:  In the running text:     ... we refer the reader to the work of Van Noort (2010).   In the bibliography:     Thomas van Noort. An important paper. 2010.   I have tried many tricks, but I don't seem to able to fulfill all the requirements:   "Thomas van Noort" has to appear sorted in the bibliography by the name "Noort". In the running text, the "Van" needs to have an uppercase 'V' In the bibliography, the "van" needs to have a lowercase 'v' I am using hyperref, and I want the whole "Van Noort (2010)" text to link to the reference.   Using plain \citet will generate:     ... we refer the reader to the work of van Noort (2010).   Note the lowercase 'v'; this is not acceptable, as per standard treatment of Dutch names. Setting the BibTeX name to Van Noort, Thomas makes the running text citation look ok, but then in the bibliography I get     Thomas Van Noort. An important paper. 2010.   Note the uppercase 'V'; this is also not acceptable, as it should only be uppercase if it is not preceded by the first name.  (1) is easy: I set the BibTeX author field to {\noopsort{Noort}}{van Noort}, Thomas. (2) and (3) I can fake by saying something like we refer the reader to the work of Van Noort \citeyear{...}, but this is not nice, and does not fulfill (4).  Anyone has any suggestions? I was under the impression that LaTeX and BibTeX were designed with these kind of things in mind, so maybe I'm missing something...

I haven't had a lot of experience with biblatex so far and I decided to use the numeric style for citations in the text. However, the authoryear style for the bibliography is much nicer. I know, I can't actually combine numeric citestyle with authoryear bibstyle.  That brings me to my question: How can I achieve using the numeric citestyle and the formatting of authoryear in the bibliography?

I am confounded as to why in this document latex is ignoring the natbib longnamesfirst option. I have used it in other documents without any problem. Any ideas are appreciated.  \documentclass[12pt]{article}  \usepackage[longnamesfirst,authoryear]{natbib}    \begin{document}  I want to cite \citet{BGG:1999} with the full list of authors names and then I want this citation \citet{BGG:1999} to appear with only the first author's names followed by et al. (1999).  \bibliographystyle{econometrica} \bibliography{test_bib}  \end{document}   Here is the example bib file:  %%test_bib @InCollection{BGG:1999, author={Bernanke, Ben S. and Gertler, Mark and Gilchrist, Simon}, editor={J. B. Taylor and M. Woodford}, title={The financial accelerator in a quantitative business cycle framework}, booktitle={Handbook of Macroeconomics}, publisher={Elsevier}, year=1999, month={}, volume={1}, number={}, series={Handbook of Macroeconomics}, edition={}, chapter={21}, pages={1341-1393} }   And here is the output I am getting:

What is the British English way of referring to a source in-text.  Is it plural because there are two authors, like this:         X and Y (2011) describe ...   Or is it singular because you are referring to a singular source, like this:     X and Y (2011) describes...   So what I am asking is whether you refer to the source or to the authors?

I'm using biblatex to manage my citation in a natbib style :  \usepackage[style=alphabetic,maxnames=6,natbib=true]{biblatex}   However when I use the \citet command, the author's name is in a \textsc font, I would like to change this behavior so that the font used is the default one, but I could not find how to do this in biblatex's documentation.

I'm encountering a problem when using Overleaf. I've used \usepackage[dutch]{babel} and my table of contents and header of my bibliography is all Dutch, which is great. However, my bibliography itself, is in English.  For example when I quote a chapter in a book, the bibliography says chapter 582 or first edition, whereas it should say hoofdstuk (Dutch for chapter) 582 and first editie (Dutch for edition).   I've tried \bibliography{bib.bib}{dutch} , but that did not work.

I have an answer that I want to use a block quote to cite and outside reference. That reference is a bulleted list.   Pretty sure I have seen this before but I cannot find anyone using it.  How can I use a numbered or bulleted list inside block quotes?

Ok sorry for this not so clear title. I'm having trouble to express &amp; find what seems so simple :s  I'm biblatex and I would like to know which citation style/bibliographical style and/or option I should use to have my bibliography ordered this way. I put you an example of a thesis from my lab here   So, in a nutshell:   exponent numbers footnote reference for the first time the ref is cited later on when it is again cited nothing happens no op cit no ibid ref numbers identical in the text, the footnote and the final bibliography all same data (the exponent, the footnote and the ref in the final bibliography linked via hyperref) citation style as Authors (Last name then First Name initials) Journal, year in bold, vol, pages.   Seems the most current setting globally for me ... but maybe it isn't.  I passed the whole day in a manner to figure that. Nothing until know, thus I have learned a lot.

I am using the following syntax, with no errors or warnings. However, the journal names are still not abbreviated. I compiled the file numerous times, as well as the bibliography. Everything compiles with no errors.  The syntax:   \bibliographystyle{IEEEtran} \bibliography{IEEEabrv,references}   Additional info: I am using BibDesk and TeXStudio on a macbook.  Do you have any idea what might be the issue? and how to solve it? Thank you.  Edit:  Example entry from the IEEEabrv file:  @STRING{IEEE\_M\_COM        = "{IEEE} Commun. Mag."}   Example entry from my references file:  @article{dai:2015,     Author = {Test, T.},     Journal = {IEEE\_M\_COM },     Month = {September}     }

I know there are a few questions regarding this, but I couldn't find the solution specifically for such problem: how do I \citeauthor{}, but keep the citing style that I want (I use \bibliographystyle{ieeetr}).  My .tex file looks something like this:  \usepackage{natbib} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[english]{babel}  \citeauthor{smith}  \begin{document}     \bibliographystyle{ieeetr}     \bibliography{References} \end{document}   And .bib file:  @Article{smth, author ="Smith, Anton", title  ="The title", year  ="2019", journal = "Some journal", volume  ="1"}   I get the (author ?) instead of Anton.  So how would I keep my citing style but use \citeauthor?

I get different formatting with different bib sources (like article, book), but none of them are correct in their current state.  So in books it shows the vol as Bd., however neither vol. nor Bd. nor any preceeding name should be visible. In articles it does not show Bd. or vol. however it separates the numbers by period:       3.2, S. 1-2   I'd like it to be like this     3, 2, S. 1-2   Examples:  @book{Doi.1978,  author = {Doi, Yutaka and Sano, Tetsuji and Tanaka, Itsuo},  year = {1978},  title = {Senkyo seido},  titleaddon = {[Das Wahlsystem]},  keywords = {Election law;Local elections},  volume = {10},  publisher = {Gy{\^o}sei},  location = {T{\^o}ky{\^o}},  series = {Gendai chih{\^o} jichi zensh{\^u}},  abstract = {}, }  @article{McMaster.1963,  author = {McMaster, John},  year = {1963},  title = {The Takashima Mine},  pages = {215--239},  pagination = {page},  volume = {38},  subtitle = {British Capital and Japanese Industrialization},  journaltitle = {Business History Review},  number = {3},  abstract = {} }   Do you know how to fix that?       \usepackage[     backend=biber,     style=authoryear,     sorting=nyvt   ]{biblatex}   \addbibresource{backmatter/sample.bib} \renewcommand{\mkbibnamefamily}[1]{\textsc{#1}} \renewcommand{\labelnamepunct}{\addcolon\space} \DeclareFieldFormat{postnote}{#1} \DeclareFieldFormat{multipostnote}{#1} \renewcommand\postnotedelim{\addcolon\addspace} \usepackage{url} \urlstyle{same}   -> Also I found quotation marks in article titles, which should not be there (it is correct that they are NOT italic though)  Thank you!

From time to time, I need to typeset Welsh. Sometimes, I need to typeset citations and bibliographies in Welsh. I think that last time I did this, I may still have been using BibTeX although I am honestly not sure. In any case, my entire work-flow now uses biber and biblatex...  I found  on changing the names of things, including the names of things used by biblatex. However, that cannot deal with the case of an unsupported language.  Suppose that I want to typeset a document in Welsh:  \documentclass[a4paper,welsh]{article}  \usepackage{babel} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}% welsh needs utf8x but biblatex doesn't like it \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}% not great for Welsh but the best pdfTeX can do \usepackage{csquotes}% doesn't like Welsh though biblatex likes csquotes on account of babel... \usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex} \bibliography{biblatex-examples}  \title{Fy Nogfen} \author{Rhywun}  \begin{document}   \maketitle   \tableofcontents   \section{Cyntaf}   \autocite{westfahl:space}    \printbibliography  \end{document}   There are multiple problems in such a case. (One is that I need utf8x but can't use it on account of biblatex. Another is that I need utf8x at all. Another is that biblatex likes csquotes but csquotes doesn't do Welsh. But these are irrelevant to this question.)  The output is as follows:    Note that the use of the English citation is just so this is easy to reproduce. Obviously, the content of the reference might well be in Welsh. (Though it might be in English, too.)  As can be seen, while elements of the document controlled by babel are handled correctly, those under the control of biblatex are not. However, I cannot simply modify the solution offered by lockstep for changing strings to customised English variants. That is, I can't just use a Welsh version of  \DefineBibliographyStrings{english}{%   bibliography = {Works Cited},   references = {Works Cited}, }   because biblatex has never heard of it.  What is the most appropriate way to configure biblatex for use with an unsupported language?

Current situation: I'm required to cite "normative" documents (read: standards and manuals) separately from articles and books etc. Using biblatex and biber with the numeric style I'm doing that by issuing multiple printbibliography commands like so:  \usepackage[style=numeric,backend=biber,bibencoding=utf8]{biblatex} %... lots of stuff \printbibliography[type=standard,title=Standards \&amp; Manuals] \vskip\baselineskip \printbibliography[type=manual,heading=none] \printbibliography[nottype=standard,nottype=manual]   which gives a heading Standards &amp; Manuals, prints a list of manuals, leaves a bit of space then the list of standards and finally, under a new heading Bibliography gives books and articles etc. Thus far everything is fine, enter:  The Problem: I'm using the shorthand field in my database for the standards and manuals which works perfect as far as output within the text is concerned and sets the shorthand as the label in the bibliography and prints the details to the right of it - problem is: my shorthands are considerably longer than the labels generated by the numeric style, but even though they're in three different \printbibliography commands, everything gets indented to the maximum width of the label, making the part for books and articles look quite ridiculous.  The following shows the problem with only two separate \printbibliography (and an obviously exaggeratedly long shorthand):   Now  what I would obviously want is for each of the \printbibliography commands to only use the indentation actually necessary to accommodate the largest label appearing within, i.e. rendering the Manuals section as above, but the Bibliography section like follows:   Can anyone help me to achieve this? Or give me some pointer where to look?  The above was produced with the following MWE on an up-to-date TeXLive 2014:  \documentclass[10pt,british]{scrbook}  \usepackage{babel} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage{lmodern}  \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib} @manual{HowTo,     title = {How to Make the World Go Round},     shorthand = {HowToMakeTheWorlGoRound},     publisher = {The Publisher},     year = {2000} }  @article{Article,     author = {Author, A. and Buthor, B.},     journal = {Journal Title},     pages = {113--126},     title = {The Article},     volume = {65},     year = {1900} } \end{filecontents*}  \usepackage[style=numeric,backend=biber,bibencoding=utf8]{biblatex} \addbibresource{\jobname.bib}  \usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}  \begin{document} \let\cleardoublepage\relax \chapter{The Document} Nothing to see here, but we refer to the \parencite{HowTo} based on a principle discovered by \textcite{Article}.  \printbibliography[type=manual,title=Manuals] \printbibliography[nottype=manual] \end{document}

Usually a name stays the same in whatever language. So, whenever I quote a work by Knuth -- be it in an English article or a German one -- I will quote him as Donald E. Knuth.  This is not always the case with ancient or medieval names. They are spelled differently in different languages. Two examples in English | German | French:   Aristotle | Aristoteles | Aristote Thomas Aquinas | Thomas von Aquin | Thomas d'Aquin   This means that when I write an English article, I need a bib-file that contains the English names, but when I want to write a German article, I need to go through my bib file and change the names accordingly. Depending on how often I in fact publish in English or German this could keep me busy and is prone to error.  So, I though, maybe I could have the different names already included in one single bib-file and let biblatex choose the correct name according to the primary language used in the document. Any ideas?  NB: I do not want to use in one single document both spellings Aristotle and Aristoteles (as the following MWE might make you think). Of course, if the article's primary language is English, then all the references to Aristotle will use the English spelling of his name. However, I want to be able to write articles in different languages, without (a) having to edit my bib-files each time or (b) generally maintaing not one single bib-file but two different ones, one for each language, or (c) having two distinct entries in one bib-file  MWE  % !TEX TS-program = lualatexmk \documentclass{scrartcl}  \usepackage{fontspec}         \setmainfont[Ligatures=TeX]{Times New Roman}  \usepackage[ngerman, british]{babel} \usepackage[babel]{csquotes} \usepackage[style=verbose,abbreviate=false,backend=biber]{biblatex}  \usepackage{filecontents}  \begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib} @book{aristotle:ross:1924,     Author = {Aristotle},    % It is here, I think, that something could be done, e.g., ...

Several bibliography resources are used in one single tex-document. They resources have been added using: \addbibresource{}. Now I'd like to use the \nocite{*} command to print all references of one of the bibresources. However \nocite{*} does consider all resources instead of just a single source (in the case of the example it should be resource2). Is there a way to specify that with \nocite{*}?  \RequirePackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents*}{\jobname-resource1.bib} @article{A2014, author={First Author}, journal={Journal A}, title={First Paper}, year={2014} } \end{filecontents*} \RequirePackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents*}{\jobname-resource2.bib} @article{B2014, author={Another Author}, journal={Journal B}, title={Second Paper}, year={2014} } @article{C2014, author={Next Author}, journal={Journal C}, title={Third Paper}, year={2014} } \end{filecontents*}  \documentclass{article}            %bib \usepackage[backend=biber,style=authoryear]{biblatex} % load the package \addbibresource{\jobname-resource1.bib} \addbibresource{\jobname-resource2.bib}  %%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \begin{document}  This is a citation \cite{C2014} \nocite{*}  \printbibliography   \end{document}
