Creating a Publication with Word or Writer

It is expected that a research publication will cite every source used, correctly and consistently. This is the purpose of a bibliography. Authors themselves must strive for accuracy and completeness, while consistency is maintained by adhering to a citation style. Usually the organization, publisher or professor will specify the citation style you must use when you submit your work.

Citavi can help you automatically generate a bibliography specific to your publication, as long as you first use the Publication Assistant. This allows Citavi to mark in-text citations or footnotes with placeholders. Later each placeholder is converted into an in-text citation or footnote in the citation style you need and a bibliography of all cited sources is added to the end of your document.

In this chapter you will learn how to:

•Use the Publication Assistant to insert references, quotations and thoughts into Word or Writer documents

•Insert references into your document

•Insert a quotation or thought into your document.

•Use additional options for special cases

•Automatically create a bibliography specific to your publication
