3.6 Getting current LaTeX document to use your.When writing about topic AB, both of these files can be linked into the document (perhaps in addition to sources ab.bib specific to topic AB). Of course, bibliographies can be split over as many files as one wishes, so there can be a file containing sources concerning topic A ( a.bib) and another concerning topic B ( b.bib). This is often more convenient than embedding them at the end of every document written a centralized bibliography source can be linked to as many documents as desired (write once, read many!).

(BibLaTeX uses this same syntax.) This database can be referenced in any LaTeX document, and citations made to any record that is contained within the file. Recently, BibTeX has been succeeded by BibLaTeX, a tool configurable within LaTeX syntax.īibTeX provides for the storage of all references in an external, flat-file database. However, a much more powerful and flexible solution is achieved thanks to an auxiliary tool called BibTeX (which comes bundled as standard with LaTeX). Fortunately, LaTeX has a variety of features that make dealing with references much simpler, including built-in support for citing references. Please see the relevant discussion.įor any academic/research writing, incorporating references into a document is an important task.
