Citaton Style Variations Reference styles tend to be peculiar to disciplines and to vary in the following ways. The ISO and NISO standards are probably not in themselves a sufficient guide to all of these variations. * The order of elements (especially elements such as initials) * The mandatoriness of elements (e.g. many chemistry styles leave out the article title, but biology and medicine wouldn't) * The punctuation between the elements * Capitalisation. E.g. of titles - some styles use "title case" (i.e. initial capitals for all main words) and some use "sentence case" (i.e. initial capitals for first word and proper nouns and adjectives only) * Acceptable abbreviations (especially regarding journal title abbreviations, but also element indicators such as "chapter/chap/ch", "editor(s)/edited by/ed(s)", "edition/edn/ed" * Character formatting (i.e. what goes in italic, bold, etc.) Source: http://dublincore.org/groups/citation/citstyles.html , May 2007 |
"Information Interchange Formats" is a new phrase to me. Might come in handy. Mentioned in this report:

There are a wide range of personal bibliographic software packages. In general, they are designed to assist in the following tasks: * manual cataloguing of bibliographic references relating to a student's or academic's personal research areas/topics; * automated collection and organisation of references from bibliographic databases, library catalogues, etc; * search and retrieval of bibliographic subsets * integration with word-processing software to automatically insert and format citations and bibliographies; * formatting of references according to particular bibliographic styles (e.g. MLA, Chicago, individual journals) and also formats for exporting to other packages and for data-sharing.
