consuming, and error prone. It makes much more sense, usually, to store all of
the bibliography entries in a single place and simply <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">extract</span>”</span>
the ones you need in each document.</p><p>That's the purpose of the
<em class="parameter"><code>bibliography.collection</code></em> parameter. To setup a global
bibliography <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">database</span>”</span>, follow these steps:</p><p>First, create a stand-alone bibliography document that contains all of
the documents that you wish to reference. Make sure that each bibliography
entry (whether you use <code class="sgmltag-element">biblioentry</code> or <code class="sgmltag-element">bibliomixed</code>)
has an ID.</p><p>My global bibliography, <code class="filename">~/bibliography.xml</code> begins
like this:</p><div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting"><!DOCTYPE bibliography
PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.1.2//EN"
"http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.1.2/docbookx.dtd">

</pre></div><p>When you create a bibliography in your document, simply
provide <span class="emphasis"><em>empty</em></span> <code class="sgmltag-element">bibliomixed</code>
entries for each document that you wish to cite. Make sure that these
elements have the same ID as the corresponding <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">real</span>”</span>
entry in your global bibliography.</p><p>For example:</p><div class="informalexample"><pre class="programlisting"><bibliography><title>Bibliography</title>
<bibliomixed id="xml-rec"/>
<bibliomixed id="xml-names"/>
<bibliomixed id="DKnuth86">Donald E. Knuth. <citetitle>Computers and
Typesetting: Volume B, TeX: The Program</citetitle>. Addison-Wesley,
1986. ISBN 0-201-13437-3.
</bibliomixed>
<bibliomixed id="relaxng"/>
</bibliography></pre></div><p>Note that it's perfectly acceptable to mix entries from your
global bibliography with <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">normal</span>”</span> entries. You can use
<code class="sgmltag-element">xref</code> or other elements to cross-reference your
bibliography entries in exactly the same way you do now.</p><p>Finally, when you are ready to format your document, simply set the
<em class="parameter"><code>bibliography.collection</code></em> parameter (in either a
customization layer or directly through your processor's interface) to
point to your global bibliography.</p><p>A relative path in the parameter is interpreted in one
of two ways:</p><div class="orderedlist"><ol class="orderedlist" type="a"><li class="listitem"><p>If your document contains no links to empty bibliographic elements,
then the path is relative to the file containing
the first <code class="sgmltag-element">bibliomixed</code> element in the document.</p></li><li class="listitem"><p>If your document does contain links to empty bibliographic elements,
then the path is relative to the file containing
the first such link element in the document.</p></li></ol></div><p>Once the collection file is opened by the first instance described
above, it stays open for the current document
and the relative path is not reinterpreted again.</p><p>The stylesheets will format the bibliography in your document as if
all of the entries referenced appeared there literally.</p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="biblioentry.item.separator.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="biblio.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="bibliography.numbered.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">biblioentry.item.separator </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="../index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> bibliography.numbered</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
