I cannot get to add a bibliography

Post by sanchopanza »

Hello friends,

I am no engineer. I am a legal scholar, who is determined to learn latex using texmaker. I simply like how it produces texts.

So far, I have learned how to set the preamble, to add sections, etc. But for the life of me I have not been able to add references to my text. I have read multiple tutorials and watched several youtube videos, which have been fruitless. I only use the Chicago manual of style using footnotes to add the references.

Tell me, please, is there a simple guide you know of that can help me do this by explaining it to me like I am a 3 yo?

Thank you.

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Welcome,

there are several ways, but we doon't know what you are using.
Please refer to http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/ ... ion-number

If that does not help, please prepare a minimal working example so we know the details of your environment.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.
