           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 3.3.0 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Citation styles available in Word.

Currently, the bibliography management tools in Writer are a complete disgrace.
It would be useful to define what to do with this since there are many
bibliography management tools that do a great job of doing it, and some
integrate quite well with Write (ex. Zotero).

However, since this is currently a part of Writer I will open a few bugs to
request improvements to this Writer feature.

Word allows an user to pick among several citation styles as shown in the first
attachment. However, Writer has no predefined Styles to how a bibliography
should be introduced in a document that incudes citations.
There are several different citation styles available used by legal documents,
scientific journals, etc.

Therefore, I would like to propose that a wide array of bibliographical styles
are created and included by default with Writer ASAP if this is a feature that
is supposed to be used.
Word doesn't have the most useful citation styles available. But it has some,
and Zotero has a list of 17 citation/bibliography styles that could be used by
Writer.
