Bug ID: 86991
Summary: Bibliographic database needs major edits
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: Windows (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I LOVE the concept of the bibliographic database but there are a few issues
that make it totally useless for me.
1. Incomplete list of bibliographic fields, for example, I cannot enter in the
URL of a web-based resource. If you cannot include a comprehensive list
(preferred option), then at least allow the user to create and name new fields.
2. Have a function to create a bibliography within LibreOffice Writer, for
example, at the end of an essay or research paper. Include options for
bibliographic standards such as APA, MLA, Chicago Style, etc. (Microsoft Office
does this very well.)
If you combine the best of MS Office and LibreOffice then this would be ideal
for university students. I don't want to go back to Microsoft but I will make
the switch if necessary as I cannot efficiently write academic papers, let
alone a graduate thesis, with LibreOffice as it stands now. Thanks for
considering this.
