Bib(la)tex entry generator

See the help page.

Add a press or research article.

Or a book, that is a work where the authors share credit for the work as a whole. (Also covers the @inbook entry type of bibtex: when you want to cite a chapter or an appendix, just use @book and specify the pages number of the chapter with the cite command.)

Or a proceedings or a collection, that is, multiple, self-contained contributions by distinct authors. If it's a book with several contributions, it's a collection. If it's a proceedings conference, then use proceedings.

Or a work of reference such as an encyclopedia or a dictionary. This is a more specific variant of the generic collection entry type. The standard styles will treat this entry type as an alias for collection.

Or a part of the previous types:

• inbook, a self-contained part of a book. This is not what you want (you're looking for @book or @incollection). @inbook is very specific. To cite a part of a book in the manner of bibtex, just use @book and specify the page or chapter number(s) with the cite command. Use @inbook to cite a self contained part of a book, like an essay or a lengthy preface/introduction to a translation, etc.,
• inproceedings, a contribution to a conference proceedings,
• incollection, a contribution to a collection,
• inreference, an article in a reference.

Or a technical manual or other documentation.

Or a thesis:

• Use pdhthesis or masterthesis.
• You also may use the "type" field of thesis to specify "phd thesis", "master thesis" or "thèse de doctorat", but it's better to use the specialized types pdhthesis or masterthesis: this way the type will be translated into French automatically.

Or a web site or web page (online).

Or a periodical when you want to cite not a specific article in a journal, but a whole (special and thematic) issue.

Or a technical report, or another type of report (research report, white paper...) (use the "type" field to specify the type).

Or something else (misc). Use the field "howpublished" to supply publishing information in free format.
