Looking at the examples it should be possible to write transformation
that would convert CSL style into XSLT customization of DocBook citation
styles (similar to ISO690 support in the stylesheets). But this would
take significant effort.

[docbook-apps] Convert CSL styles to Docbook stylesheet

[Peter Fleck]

Hi all,

I wonder if it would be much work to convert the wealth of resources of
Bibliography styles using the CSL XML (Citation Style Language) on Zotero
to Docbook templates in the same manner as the ISO690 . There is over 9000
styles there at the moment - https://www.zotero.org/styles/ but if we could
even get a few of the main styles like APA, MLA, Chicago, they would be of
immense benefit.

Here for example is Chicago -
https://www.zotero.org/styles/chicago-fullnote-bibliography?source=1

The schema is available here -
