According to section 2.2 of the BibLaTeX manual, TECHREPORT is a lagacy-supported type. So, why does this example below now print the entry? Is there something more to it? I would rather not use BibLaTeX specific types...
\documentclass{article}
% introduce asticks (*) in list of references with new command mybibitem
%\usepackage{cite}
%\newcommand{\mybibitem}[1]{\stepcounter{enumiv} \bibitem[\textbf{*\arabic{enumiv}}]{#1}}
% BibLaTeX
\usepackage[
backend=bibtex,
style=authoryear,
firstinits=true,
maxbibnames=99]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{CV.bib}
\begin{document}
text text text text text text text text text text text text text text text
\nocite{tech2015}
\setlength\bibitemsep{5pt}
\printbibheading[title={Bibliography}]
\printbibliography[type=techreport, heading=subbibliography, title={Reports}]
\end{document}
The .bib file:
@TECHREPORT{tech2015,
author = {Meyer, B. and Miller, J.},
title = {{Some Great Report}},
institution = {The Great Institution},
year = {2015},
type = {Total Cool Reports}
}
techreport
TECHREPORT
is an alias forREPORT
, so you should usetype=report
