No matter which citation system you chose to use, a list of all references cited in your manuscript will be shown at the end of the manuscript. While an in-text citation is used, no matter if it is author-date or just a number, the list is called the reference list. When a footnote or endnote is used for citing reference, the list at the end is usually called the bibliography. In this tab, you not only need to decide which fields will be included, but you also have to set a few other things like sort order and layout.
Sort Order
Sort Bibliography by
This setting decides how references will be sorted in the reference list / bibliography section. When numbers are used in a citation, the reference list should be sorted by "Appearance Order". The "Other..." option is usually not used unless you are creating a special style for reporting purposes. When the "Other..." option is checked, you can sort the references based on any data field in Biblioscape.
Sort edited works after original works by same author
For references that only have editors instead of authors like "Book Edited", the editors field will be placed at the beginning. You can instruct Biblioscape to put such references after references of original works with the same author.
When formatting or sorting anonymous works
If a reference has no authors, there are several ways deal with it. You can choose to leave the author blank, use the title in place of author (use short title if available), or insert text like "anonymous".
Layout
Bibliography title
Insert whatever text needs to be shown at the beginning of the bibliography section, like "References:"
Indentation
The formatted reference list can have the first line indented at half inch if you set the "First line" to "0.5" and "Hanging" to "0.0". You can also display the reference list in hanging style by setting the "First line" to "0.0" and "Hanging" to "0.5".
Spacing
"Line spacing" controls the space between each line inside a reference, while "Space after" controls the space between each reference.
Templates
The templates box lists all the fields that will be shown in the "Reference List / Bibliography" part. You can drag and drop field items from the "Available Fields" box to the "Templates" box. Once all the fields are in the correct order, double click on each field item to set format properties, as well as the text to appear before and after the field text. If there is no data in a specific field, the text before and after that field won't be shown either. Click the "Update" button at the top to show the changes you have just made.
