<bibliography> Bibliography

<bibliography> is used to encode citations to works based on, about, or of special value to using the materials being described, or works in which a citation to or brief description of materials is available. The works may be in a <list>, in <bibref> and <archref> elements, or in a series of <p> elements.

For single citations within a <p> tag anywhere in the EAD file, <bibref> may be used instead of <bibliography>.

<bibliography> is one of the elements which may be used within <archdesc>, <c>, <c01> … <c12>, and itself.

Attributes

  • @altrender – not required. Use if the content of the element should be displayed or printed differently than the rendering established in a style sheet for other occurrences of the element.
  • @audience – not required. Use to set whether the element’s contents will be visible to external users or to internal ones. Possible values are: “internal” and “external.”
  • @encodinganalog – not required. May contain information to map this tag to a particular element in another schema.
  • @id – not required. Creates an ID for element. Can be used for linking.
  • @lang – not required. Three-letter code that indicates the language in which the element’s contents were written. It should come from ISO 639-2b.
  • @localtype – not required. This attribute may be used within a number of elements. Its characteristics depend on the element to which it applies. There is no list of specific values for @localtype within <bibliography>, but it may be used for encoding information.
  • @script – not required. Four-letter code that indicates the script in which the element’s contents were written. It should come from ISO 15924.

Child Elements

<bibliography> may contain an optional <head> element. It must contain one or more of the following: <archref>, <bibref>, <blockquote>, <chronlist>, <list>, <p>, <table>, and further <bibliography> elements.
