Bibliography Overview
The Bibliography module, also commonly referred to as Biblio, is a
contributed module that provides a robust method of managing
and displaying bibliographic entries on a Drupal site.
Bibliographic entries can be used for a few different reasons:
• A list of documents published by faculty or staff that may
be of further interest to an audience
• A list of published material that further supports content
on a site
• An inventory list of publications within a group that may
be available as resources to an audience
The Biblio module also tracks authors and keywords, has
numerous import/export options, and is integrated with Views.

Manual Biblio Entries: Overview
Bibliographic entries are created using the Biblio content type,
found at Create content > Biblio.
This content type is just a little bit different from others used in
the OSU Drupal 6 system as it possesses a Publication Type field,
which offers thirty-one different informational templates to users
who create manual entries.
These templates include, but are not limited, the following:
• Articles
–
–
–
–
Journal
Newspaper
Magazine
Web
• Books
• Cases
• Statutes
Let’s start our Biblio exploration by creating a couple of different
types of manual entries: Journal Article and Book.

Manual Biblio Entries: Ex. 01 Create a Journal Article Entry
The Journal Article submission form
contains fields relative to this
particular publication type, roughly
grouped as follows:
1. Publication type and ID
1
2
This is basic information about the type of
article (Journal), title, and year of publication.
2. Author information
Many authoring option types are available,
including editors, and corporate authors.
3
3. Journal and article info
Specific information regarding the journal and
where to locate the article within the journal
4. Location info
Various methods for locating the article
including ISBN and Keywords
Using the ex-01.doc lab materials, add the
supplied Journal Article information.
Remember to click Save when completed.

Manual Biblio Entries: Ex. 02 Create a Magazine Article Entry - Completed
The completed Magazine Article publication
type has many of the same information
fields as the Journal Article publication type
– but there are a few differences.
For example, the Magazine Article type
offers Edition and Frequency fields, whereas
the Journal Article type does not.
The Journal Article type has a Start Page
field where the Magazine Article type does
not.

Now that we have some Biblio content, let’s
see what features Biblio has. The most
obvious to start with is the publications list:
1. To get to the publications list, click on
the Biblio link in the Navigation menu –
by default, the publications list will be
grouped based on the publication Type
2. To group by author, click on the Author
link at the top of the screen
3. To group by title, click on the Title link
at the top of the screen
4. To group by year of publication, click on
the Year link at the top of the screen
Note that for all of these links, when one is active, a small
triangle appears next to it. Clicking on this triangle will
sort items from ascending to descending.

Biblio Components: Ex. 05 Authors List – Edit Author
You may have noticed the misspelling
in one of our author’s names. Biblio
has to use some specific patterns to
separate names and sometimes gets
thrown by names that contain
abbreviations. It’s easy to fix, though:

1. Locate the Clair, B.S. author and
click the corresponding edit link
2. When the Edit author information
screen appears, remove the St.
from the First Name field

Imports & Exports: Overview
Perhaps Biblio’s greatest asset is its import and export flexibility.
There are many different bibliographic import formats. Biblio
works with the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
BibTeX
End Note Tagged
End Note 7 XML
End Note 8 XML
MARC
RIS
There are also different methods for importing bibliographic
information. Biblio offers three different methods:
• Paste entry
• Lookup
• File import
We’ll take a look at a few of these different formats and methods.

Imports & Exports: Ex. 07 Single Imports – BibTeX Overview
BibTeX is a cross-platform software application used to create and
structure lists of bibliographic references. BibTeX is commonly
used with the LaTeX typesetting system.
BibTeX code may be imported into Biblio in one of two ways:
either as an import file with the extension .bib, or as a .txt file, in
which the code is pasted directly into the Biblio submission form,
versus uploaded.

Imports & Exports: Ex. 07 Single Imports – DOI Overview
The Digital Object Identifier (DOI) system is used for identifying
content objects in a digital environment.
DOI names are assigned to items for use on digital networks. They
are used to provide current information, including where the
object (or information about it) can be found on the Internet.
A DOI name is persistent, which means that information about a
digital object – such as meta data or location - may change over
time, but the DOI name will not change. More information about
DOI can be found at http://www.doi.org.
CrossRef is a not-for-profit association which provides a
collaborative reference linking service for scholarly information.
This group provides a free DOI lookup service at
http://www.crossref.org/guestquery/. If a scholarly publication is
listed with CrossRef, the associated DOI number will be made
available here. We’ll start by registering with CrossRef.

Imports & Exports: Ex. 07 Single Imports – RIS Overview
The RIS file format is a standardized tag format developed by
Research Information Systems, Incorporated.
This format is used by many different digital libraries including :
• Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Xplore
– http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/guesthome.jsp
• Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) portal
– http://portal.acm.org/portal.cfm
• Summit Libraries Catalog
– http://summit.worldcat.org
The RIS file format uses the .ris extension. On a Windows
operating system, content within this file format is best viewed
using WordPad (right click on the file and choose Open With >
WordPad).
Biblio offers the ability to import .ris files via a file upload.

Imports & Exports: Progress to Date
Take a look at the publications list now, by clicking on the Biblio
link in the Navigation menu. You may also want to take a look at
the authors list. The information has grown substantially, and
quickly, thanks to imports.
Even greater efficiencies can be gained, though, by utilizing a bulk
import operation…

36
Imports & Exports: Ex. 08 Batch Imports – File Preparation Overview
Biblio allows for batch importing of bibliographic records which,
when available, are the most efficient methods of importing data.
If several smaller files are provided, and they are all the same file
format, they can be combined into one larger file and then
imported all at once. We’ll use the .ris format as an example.
At left is a single .ris file with multiple
records inside of it.
Note how each record begins with a
TY, ends with an ER – , and is separated
with a space.
To prepare a document like this, simply
open one .ris file in WordPad and paste
other .ris records from other .ris files
into the first, following this format.

exact same manner as uploading a file with a
single record in it:
1. In the Navigation menu, go to Biblio >
Import
2. Click on the Browse button, browse to
the ex-08.ris file in the lab materials, and
select it
3. In the File Type field, select RIS
4. Leave the Batch Process checked
5. If the Set user ID field does not contain
your username, select your username
from the field
6. Click the Import button
7. An upload progress bar will appear
8. A confirmation message will appear if
the import was successful
38
Imports & Exports: Completed Imports
Take another look at the publications and author lists and it
becomes obvious why imports, when available, are the best way
to go.
Note that there are some “authors” in the list that may
need to be edited in the actual content type. A good
example is the author “Writer’s Program…” – this
probably would better fit Other Author Affiliations in the
Other Biblio Fields group rather than Author.

Configuration: Overview
Biblio offers a great deal of flexibility in regards to configurations
– more than can be covered in this particular workshop alone.
Biblio configurations can be found at Administer > Site
configuration > Biblio settings. This configuration suite contains
six main tabs, with sub-items available for some tabs.
• Preferences
• Fields
• Authors
• Keywords
• Import
• Export
We’ll focus on some Preference, Field, and Author configurations.

If a Taxonomy vocabulary is associated with
the Biblio content type and a term is selected,
it will automatically be copied into the Biblio
keyword database
For the Taxonomy related features to work, you must
have a Taxonomy Vocabulary built and have it associated
with the Biblio content type.
4. Use keywords from biblio entries as
taxonomy “free tags” checkbox
Will auto-populate a chosen Taxonomy
vocabulary with keywords in the Biblio
database

Configuration: Ex. 11 Preferences – Links – Link Behaviors
Additional link behavior options are included, as
follows:
1. Links open in new browser option
Opens linked page in a new browser tab or window. This
is especially helpful if links are external.
2. Carry “inline” mode through to all links option
This is used when the default Drupal search feature is
enabled to help keep the result appearance intact. It is
not necessary for OSU Drupal 6.
3. Hyperlink titles using supplied URL option
If a URL to a specific publication is available, it can be
entered in the Biblio submission form and traffic can be
routed directly to that publication instead of the Biblio
entry.
1
2
4. Hyperlink author names option
3
This creates a hyperlink on an author’s name which will
then filter all publications based on that particular author. 4

Configuration: Ex. 11 Preferences – Styling – Overview
Different disciplines, industries, and institutions may use different
bibliographic styles – some common examples are:
• Modern Language Association (MLA)
Literature, arts, and the humanities
• Council of Science Editors (CSE)
Natural sciences, chemistry, mathematics, and physics
• Chicago
Newspapers, books, magazines, and non-scholarly publications
Additionally, it’s not uncommon for groups to often have their
own custom citation format.
Biblio is capable of rendering eight different, common citation
format styles, and also provides some options for how the node is
laid out and whether annotations should be displayed or not.

Configuration: Ex. 11 Preferences – Styling – Style Formats
There are a few different styling elements to
consider:
1. Text to display…no year of publication field
Sometimes the year of publication is not known or
provided. Biblio can be set up to automatically enter a
brief note to handle a null year of publication field.

2. Text to display…publication set to 9998 field
If a publication is currently In Press (which means it
hasn’t been officially published yet) the code 9998 will
often be used. Biblio can be set up to automatically
enter a brief note to handle items that are in process.
3. Style options

Eight different, popular citation formats available
4. Node Layout options
Choose between the default node style or the original,
less styled version

Configuration: Ex. 12 Fields – Overview
Biblio offers many different options for Field
configuration on all of its many templates –
more than what the average user will
probably need. We’ll cover a few items,
though, that may be of interest. To begin,
the Fields configuration panel contains three
different sub-items:
1. Common tab

This is the initial screen that is viewed when
clicking into the Fields configuration set. Shown
at right.

The Common Fields configuration panel can be
overwhelming. Once it’s broken down into
sections, it becomes more understandable:
1. Field Name column
Name of field in database. Can’t change this.
2. Default Title column
Label name of field. Can change this, may not want to.
3. Hint column
Add help text for your contributors – this is handy
4. Common column
Make a particular field show on all templates
5. Required column
Require an entry to be put in a field – use with caution
6. Autocomplete column
Helps auto fill fields
7. Weight column
Don’t fuss with this, items can be drag and dropped instead.

Configuration: Ex. 12 Fields – Common – Add Hint
Perhaps the most helpful feature in the
Common field configurations is the ability to
add a Hint – this can help provide direction
to the people who are creating Biblio
content on your site. To add a Hint:
1. In the Hint column, enter some brief
instructional text
Note: This will not display for any of the author
fields.
2. Click the Save button at the bottom of
the screen

This is not a necessary configuration, but it
can be quite helpful, especially if a group
experiences issues such as high turnover or
infrequent use of the Biblio submission
form.

Configuration: Ex. 12 Fields – Common – Publication Types
Biblio includes 30 different templates for
different publication types. A list of all of
these templates can be found in the
Publication Types subsection of the Fields
configuration tab.
1. Specific templates can be edited by
clicking on the respective edit link.
2. If a particular template is not desired, it
can be hidden by clicking on its hide
link – this will not delete the template,
it will merely make it unavailable for
use.
3. To add a new publication type, click the
Add New Type link
4. To reset everything to the default
settings, click the Reset all types to
defaults link

The List sub-item, should appear
somewhat familiar. This is the same list
that is hyperlinked to the publication lists
that Biblio generates. Just as a refresher:
1. Clicking on the author’s name will pull
up a filtered list of all publications by
that author.
2. Clicking on an author’s edit link will
open up the edit panel for that
particular author.

Authors can become orphaned in a couple
of different ways: if a publication is deleted,
or if the author is removed from all
publication nodes on the site.
The Orphaned Authors sub-item provides a

Note: To select all checkboxes, just click the
topmost checkbox to auto-fill all lower boxes.
2. Click the Delete button at the top of the
