Changing the Citation Style

Several citation styles are preinstalled with Citavi, and you can seamlessly download additional styles from our library of hundreds of styles.

Choosing a Citation Style

1.In the Reference Editor, on the Citation menu, point to Citation style and click Browse citation styles. This opens the list of styles on your computer.

2.If you want to switch to a style that is in the list, select it and click OK.

3.If you need a style that is not on the list, click Find and add style. You can search for a style according to a variety of criteria.

•By Name, to search for the exact name of a  style guide or of a journal you want to publish in.

•By Citation system to find a citation style that follows a particular pattern.

•By Language to find a citation style in the language you want to publish your article or paper in.

•By Subject area to find a citation style that used in your academic discipline.

4.For each style, a preview is displayed with examples of in-text citations or footnotes and the bibliographic entry for several reference types. After you've found the style you want to use, select the checkbox for the style, and then click Add.

5.Click OK to finish.

We are happy to add additional citation styles to Citavi, as long as they are the official styles of scholarly journals or academic publishers and documentation is available. Please send your requests to us by e-mail and let us know the Internet address where the citation documentation can be found.
