How do I add a bibliography to my document?
First, export a .bib
file from your reference manager, or create a .bib
file manually. Then, upload the .bib
file via the files menu. You can also import .bib
files via the direct Mendeley or Zotero integration which is available to those on paid plans.
Once your bibliography file has been uploaded, there are a number of bibliography packages which can be used to display the relevant entries in your document (as you cite them). As an example, we often use the natbib
package, and the commands for natbib
look like:
...
\usepackage{natbib}
...
\begin{document}
...
\bibliographystyle{plainnat}
\bibliography{name-of-your-bib-file-here}
\end{document}
You can also edit the bib file directly via the files menu. For additional information on adding a bibliography to your document, see Part 2 of our Intro to LaTeX course or check out the LaTeX Wikibook.
