Biblatex style for ISO 690 standard

Biblatex is a bibliography and citation tool for LaTeX. This project provides support for citations in ISO 690 style. As the standard is a little bit ambiguous in some details regarding formatting of records, we largely follow requirements of Czech interpretation, as it is required form in many Czech universities. The style can be used in other languages as well, of course.

Install

Open the terminal and find location of your TEXMFHOME directory with this command:

kpsewhich -var-value TEXMFHOME

Open this directory and check that the directory $TEXMFHOME/tex/latex exists. If it doesn't exist, you must create it. You can do this from the command line or using a file manager. Open the $TEXMFHOME/tex/latex directory and either run the command

git clone git@github.com:michal-h21/biblatex-iso690.git

or unzip the file

https://github.com/michal-h21/biblatex-iso690/archive/master.zip

here. You should be able to use biblatex-iso690 now.

Usage:

\usepackage[english,czech]{babel} % main language of the document must be last
\usepackage[
   backend=biber        % if we want unicode
  ,style=iso-authoryear % or iso-numeric for numeric citation method
  ,autolang=other       % to support multiple languages in bibliography
  ,sortlocale=cs_CZ     % locale of main language, for sorting
  ,bibencoding=UTF8     % this is necessary only if bibliography file is in different encoding than main document
]{biblatex}

Custom options

Above and beyond the scope of package options provided by biblatex itself, here are also some more. Default values are in bold.

  • spacecolon add space before colon in publisher and title (and also title and subtitle):
    • [true] Praha : Academia
    • [false] Praha: Academia
  • pagetotal print out total number of pages as an additional information in the notes section:

Bibliographic fields

Some fields have a different meaning than in plain BibTeX.

1. If the publication is written in a different language to the main document, it should have a filled langid field.

langid = {czech}

2. Publications with online versions should have a urldate field. It is the date when you last checked the publication online.

urldate = {2011-01-12}

3. If the publication has more than one ISBN or ISSN number, use just one of them.

4. Publisher and place:

location = {Praha},
publisher = {Academia}
