Using LyX with biblatex-apa
. I am trying to remove the parentheses that surround the article, book, collection, etc year in the references. I just want the format to be YEAR.
instead of (YEAR).
\documentclass{article}
\begin{filecontents}{bib.bib}
@article{art1,
Author = {John Smith},
Year = {1998},
Publisher = {XYZ},
Title = {ABC}
}
@book{book1,
Author = {Jane Smith},
Year = {2009},
Publisher = {ABC},
Title = {XYZ}
}
\end{filecontents}
\usepackage[american]{babel}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage[style=apa, backend=biber]{biblatex}
\DeclareLanguageMapping{american}{american-apa}
\addbibresource{bib.bib}
\begin{document}
text \cite{art1}
text \cite{book1}
\printbibliography
\end{document}
I tried removing them using: \DeclareFieldFormat{year}{#1}
in the preamble but nothing changed
