Classifying bibliography items
All bibItems must have a class and may also have a subClass.
| REF | reference: generic unclassified bibitem |
| REF:BK | reference: book |
| REF:BKCH | reference: chapter in book |
| REF:JART | reference: journal article |
| REF:CONF | reference: conference |
| REF:PER | reference: periodical |
| REF:LINK | reference: web links |
| REF:ARC | reference: archives |
| REF:ART | reference: artwork |
| REF:WORK | reference: work |
BibItems are split into four groups, core classes, additional classes, legal classes, and unclassified.
- Always capture core class references unless OUP specifically tell you not to.
- Only capture additional classes for products when specified.
- Only capture legal class references for data captured for law publishing groups (Law-UK, Law-US or Law-India).
- Unclassified should only be used if there is not a core class that can be identified (or if an additional reference has not been specified).
Consider the full context of the document to correctly identify the class and subClass attribute values. Capture the reference type in a class attribute value, and if required the sub-type in a subClass attribute value.
