Bibliography styles for CMFBibliographyAT

Description

This product is an add-on to Raphael Ritz’s CMFBibliographyAT.

It is used by ATBiblioList and ATBiblioTopic to format the display of bibliography references listings (biblio smart folders and biblio lists contents) in pre formatted ways, or by using custom designed styles created by portal users.

It should not be too difficult for a python programmer to write its own file system based bibliography styles. If you do so, please share your interesting bibliography styles with the community.

• Installs some FS based Bibref Styles in the ‘portal_bibliostyles’ tool:

  • Minimal: Default minimal bibliography style.

  • APA: American Psychological Association bibliography style.

  • MLA: Modern Language Association style.

  • Chicago and Harvard styles.

• Installs a few Archetypes based content types for handling custom styles and style sets: ‘Bibref Custom Style’, ‘Bibref Custom Style Set’, and ‘Bibref Custom Style Folder’.
