I would like to have biblatex-chicago
automatically format the volume and page numbers of a reference to a multivolume work but without printing anything else. In other words, I want a version of the \notecite
command for multivolume works. If in fact this does not yet exist, it could be dubbed "\notevolcite
".
MWE:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[notes]{biblatex-chicago}
\addbibresource{biblatex-examples.bib}
\begin{document}
\notecite[22]{knuth:ct}
\end{document}
I would like to be able to change \notecite[22]{knuth:ct}
to \notevolcite{3}[22]{knuth:ct}
to produce the output:
vol. 3, p. 22
or, when using the abbreviated colon formatting:
3:22
