What are the Bibliography Types - in order

Help
1

Hello, I just exported my database as a plain BibTeX. I have a column that says Bibliography Type and then numbers. I already cought that 7 is journal, however I was unable to find what are the numbers of all other types, does anyone know?

Thank you

Edit: Just realized I did not export the file directly as BibTex, I exported it OpenOffice to use it in excel.

Hi,

to help you we need more context. Where and how did you export your database? JabRef operates on bibtex directly so plain bibtex does not change any bibliography type

Hi Christoph, thank you for answering. I noticed that I did not export the files as bib but I used OpenOffice. I selected the articles, went to export, export selected entries, and on the type list I picked OpenOffice/LibreOffice CSV. With this, I still dont know why the bibliography type is a number. Hope with this you are able to recreate the issue, or if you know the types.

thank you again for your time

Hi,

Maybe another question first, which helps me to better understand your intent: Do you need or want to use the references in a special format? Or do you just want to use JabRef and LibreOffice together?

to answer your actual question, this is some special format that can be used as a data source for LibreOffice’s internal bibliographic database - The number maps to the types in OO/LO
Here in the code, the mapping is defined:

This is how it then can be re-used in LO’s internal bibliography tool.
The definition is based on the following official API:

Hello Christoph,

I dont want to use any special format, I just thought that exporting to libre office would make it easier to handle the information.

Your answer is on the dot, thats excatly what I wanted to know.

Thank you so much.
