Instructions for using template with APA citations #23

Open foleyj2 opened 1 year ago

foleyj2 commented 1 year ago

Some disciplines need APA style citations. How do we make it easy for them in this template?

foleyj2 commented 1 year ago

Creating a branche "apa-citations" to work on this first.

foleyj2 commented 1 year ago

Tested procedure in apa-cite branch and documented in instructions.tex. merged into master.

This change conflicts with Issue #6.

By now, we could emulate most formatting issues with biblatex and use biber. \usepackage[style=ieee]{biblatex} for IEEE style citations. \usepckage[style=apa]{biblatex} for APA style citations.

Hmmm. I was trying to go back to bibtex to keep it consistent with how many people are used to it working in other templates and existing .bst files. This is a big shift, but maybe no one but me cares about it.

I was able to setup an APA version for Cloey's thesis in CS. I will see about migrating the instructions and testing them better here.
