BIBLIOGRAPHIC INFORMATION FILE BibTeX uses a style-independent text-based le format for lists of bibliography items, such as articles, books, and theses. BibTeX bibliography le names usually end in .bib. Bibliography entries each contain some subset of standard data entries: > address: Publishers address (usually just the city, but can be the full address for lesser-known publishers) > author: The name(s) of the author(s) (in the case of more than one author, separated by and) > booktitle: The title of the book, if only part of it is being cited > chapter: The chapter number > edition: The edition of a book, long form (such as Firstor Second) > editor: The name(s) of the editor(s) > eprint: A specication of an electronic publication, often a preprint or a technical report > howpublished: How it was published, if the publishing method is nonstandard > institution: The institution that was involved in the publishing, but not necessarily the publisher > journal: The journal or magazine the work was published in > key: A hidden eld used for specifying or overriding the alphabetical order of entries (when the authorand editorelds are missing). Note that this is very different from the key (mentioned just after this list) that is used to cite or cross-reference the entry. > month: The month of publication (or, if unpublished, the month of creation) > note: Miscellaneous extra information > number: The (issue) numberof a journal, magazine, or tech-report, if applicable. (Most publications have a volume, but no numbereld.) > organization: The conference sponsor

> pages: Page numbers, separated either by commas or double-hyphens. > publisher: The publishers name > school: The school where the thesis was written > series: The series of books the book was published in (e.g. The Hardy Boysor Lecture Notes in Computer Science) > title: The title of the work > type: The eld overriding the default type of publication (e.g. Research Notefor techreport, PhD dissertationfor phdthesis, Sectionfor inbook/incollection) > url: The WWW address > volume: The volume of a journal or multi-volume book > year: The year of publication (or, if unpublished, the year of creation) In addition, each entry contains a key that is used to cite or cross-reference the entry. This key is the rst item in a BibTeX entry, and is not part of any eld. SOURCE This document is a COPY of part of the information available in wikipedia/BibTeX.
