TeX - LaTeX Asked by LaNoTUM on July 15, 2021
I need help with rearranging exactly one pair of references in my bibliography. 🙂
Currently, my bibliography is arranged alphabetically, which is the right format.
Some author published a correction of a published paper at the same year and my supervisor asked me to rearrange the two citations. So the first published paper should have the index a.
See the following MWE:
documentclass{article}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
RequirePackage{filecontents}
begin{filecontents}{bib.bib}
@article{Williamson.1968,
author = {Williamson, Oliver E.},
year = {1968},
title = {Economies as an Antitrust Defense: The Welfare Tradeoffs},
}
@article{Williamson.1968b,
author = {Williamson, Oliver E.},
year = {1968},
title = {Economies as an Antitrust Defense: Correction and Reply},
}
end{filecontents}
usepackage[authordate,strict,backend=biber,bibencoding=inputenc]{biblatex-chicago}
addbibresource{bib.bib}
begin{document}
This is the first citation parencite{Williamson.1968}.
In the same year, a correction was published parencite{Williamson.1968b}.
vspace{5 cm}
printbibliography
end{document}
Thank you very much!
Best regards!
I would use sorttitle = {Economies as an Antitrust Defense}
in the first publication.
documentclass{article}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
begin{filecontents}[overwrite]{jobname.bib}
@article{Williamson.1968,
author = {Williamson, Oliver E.},
year = {1968},
title = {Economies as an Antitrust Defense: The Welfare Tradeoffs},
sorttitle = {Economies as an Antitrust Defense},
}
@article{Williamson.1968b,
author = {Williamson, Oliver E.},
year = {1968},
title = {Economies as an Antitrust Defense: Correction and Reply},
}
end{filecontents}
usepackage[authordate,strict,backend=biber,bibencoding=inputenc]{biblatex-chicago}
addbibresource{jobname.bib}
begin{document}
This is the first citation parencite{Williamson.1968}.
In the same year, a correction was published parencite{Williamson.1968b}.
vspace{5 cm}
printbibliography
end{document}

I suggest you use the noopsort
trick that works with both bibtex and biber. The macro is defined as
providecommandnoopsort[1]{}
This seems like a trivial command, which takes one argument and outputs nothing via LaTeX. But it's not useless, as it can be used to influence how bibtex and biber sort entries. In the code below, observe the noopsort{a}
and noopsort{b}
instructions at the start of the entries' respective title
fields. Since the biblatex-chicago
style sorts entries by the author
, year
, and title
fields, the noopsort
directives let you achieve your formatting goal.
The noopsort
trick is very versatile and has many possible uses. See, for instance, Put Chinese-language entries before English-language entries in the bibliography for an example of how to use noopsort
to place, you guessed it, all Chinese-language entries before the other entries in the bibliography.
documentclass{article}
%%usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} % that's the default nowadays
providecommandnoopsort[1]{}
begin{filecontents}[overwrite]{bib.bib}
@article{Williamson.1968a,
author = {Williamson, Oliver E.},
year = {1968},
title = {noopsort{a}Economies as an Antitrust Defense: The Welfare Tradeoffs},
}
@article{Williamson.1968b,
author = {Williamson, Oliver E.},
year = {1968},
title = {noopsort{b}Economies as an Antitrust Defense: Correction and Reply},
}
end{filecontents}
usepackage[authordate,strict,backend=biber,bibencoding=inputenc]{biblatex-chicago}
addbibresource{bib.bib}
begin{document}
This is the first citation parencite{Williamson.1968a}.
In the same year, a correction was published parencite{Williamson.1968b}.
printbibliography
end{document}
