I want to add a list of publications to my CV, and I found that the biblatex-publist
package offers everything I was looking for.
For conference papers, I used the @misc
entry. I want the entries to appear starting with the year
, but I want the date to be displayed later in the entry. When using the authoryear
bibliography style, I can achieve this with mergedate
.
For the publist
style, however, this option seems to have no effect, and it begins each entry with the full date. I can use the date=year
option to suppress the full date at the beginning of the entry, but it then also omits the full date from the entry later.
Is there a way to achieve an output similar to how mergedate
works with authoryear
?
MEW:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[backend=biber,
bibstyle=publist,
% date=year,
mergedate=basic,
sorting=ydnt]{biblatex}
\plauthorname[Firstname][]{Lastname}
\begin{filecontents*}[overwrite]{publist.bib}
@misc{paper2012test,
author = {Lastname, Firstname},
title = {Paper title},
year = {2012},
howpublished = {Paper presented at the meeting of Organization Name, Location},
date = {2012-11-03},
keywords = {paper}
}
\end{filecontents*}
\addbibresource{publist.bib}
\begin{document}
\nocite{*}
\printbibliography[type=misc, heading=subbibliography, title={Conference Papers (selected)}]
\end{document}
@inproceedings
is used for conference papers, even if the proceedings are not actually officially published - but maybe for your field that is different. That will probably not solve the date issue though, for that maybe use date=year and put the exact date in the howpublished, i.e., presented at the meeting on 2012-11-03, or in the note field which is usually displayed last.
