Putting bibliography entries in text
This is a common requirement for journals and other publications in
the humanities. Sometimes the requirement is for the entry to appear
in the running text of the document, while other styles require that
the entry appear in a footnote.
Options for entries in running text are
- The package bibentry, which puts slight restrictions
on the format of entry that your
.bst file generates, but is
otherwise undemanding of the bibliography style.
- The package inlinebib, which requires that you use its
inlinebib.bst
- The package jurabib, which was originally targetted at
German law documents, and has comprehensive facilities for the
manipulation of citations. The package comes with four bibliography
styles that you may use: jurabib.bst, jhuman.bst and
two Chicago-like ones.
Options for entries in footnotes are
- The package footbib, and
- The package jurabib, again.
Note that jurabib does the job using LaTeX's standard
footnotes, whereas footbib creates its own sequence of
footnotes. Therefore, in a document which has other footnotes, it's
best to use jurabib, to avoid confusion of footnotes and
foot-citations.
