BibTeX, biblatex and biber ⇒ Seperate bibliography into books only, articles only, etc.

[Colin93]

Hi everyone

I'd like to seperate my bibliography according to the type : articles, books, online, etc. but still appear on the same page (chapter Bibliography). I've found several solutions but which require bibtex. I'm using biblatex. How should I proceed ?

I attached a simplified version of my .tex file and bib file.


Have a nice weekend !

Still, should give you the right keywords and code to see how it is done. Do you need further help?

[Colin93]

Oh no I meant it helped me a lot ! Thankyou !
However some of my references keep appearing twice. Ex : 1 reference appear in both "Book" and "Online" whereas its type is book. Any ideas ? You told me once that my Biber version is outdated. Can that be the problem ?
I'm trying to send you an example but unfortunately I get an "Empty Bibliography" I'm only using "type" to differentiate. Maybe I should use another field.

Ex

Code: Select all

\printbibliography[heading=subbibliography, title={Online Documents},nottype=unpublished,nottype=book,nottype=techreport,nottype=masterthesis,nottype=article,nottype=phdthesis,nottype=report]
%\printbibliography[type=article, heading=subbibliography,

So... totally weird but when I use keyword field, things work better. However @article never appears. I'm going to keep trying.

2 or 3 references are still missing but you told me in an earlier thread that this is because my Bibtex version's old so maybe this is the same problem...

As always, just mentioning a Problem is hard o debug. A minimal working example would be in order.

An outdated System can be a problem, but there is no guarantee. A malformatted database entry is also possible.

[Colin93]

Finally got my example to work ! You can see the problem now.

Thanks again !

Your dates have the wrong format (biber warns about this) and your names have the wrong format (something i think i have mentioned before). You gotta fix this. Biber warns you about all those things, you just have to read the warnings.

And don't put formatting commands into the database, they do not belong there. Something i stripped from my example for you earlier.

[Colin93]

I will correct the dates. I did not notice the formatting commands... You mean stuff like \& or \- right ?

Thankyou again !!!
