Dates

Bibliographic information frequently includes dates and years. You can edit the properties of a date component to customize how dates appear.

For example, the date January 30, 2009 can appear in a citation or bibliography in many ways. For example:

There are also standard date formats that are defined by your operating system. These formats change depending on the date format set on your computer system. For example:

Occasionally, you may add a reference that has not been published yet. In these cases, right-click a date or year field and click In press to insert a placeholder.

In the citation style editor, you can set the text that the placeholder is replaced with, such as "in press" or "forthcoming"

In some use cases, instead of a year component, you will see a year derived component instead. See Using Special Components.
