GOST

BibTEX support for GOST standard bibliographies

GOST is a bundle of BibTEX styles to format references according to the State Standards on information, librarianship and publishing (GOST) issued by The Russian Federation and Interstate Committee of former USSR States.

Current version is 1.2l, 2021.02.05.

Released under the Project Public License v1.3c or later See http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt

Please submit bug reports and feature requests to

https://github.com/kia999/GOST/issues

The System of State Standards includes:

GOST 7.80 -2000  Bibliographic record.
                 Heading. General requirements and rules.
GOST 7.83 -2001  Electronic editions. Basic types and imprint.
GOST 7.1  -2003  Bibliographic record.
                 Bibliographic description.
                 General requirements and rules.
GOST 7.11 -2004  Bibliographic description and references.
                 Rules for the abbreviation of words and word
                 combinations in foreign European languages.
GOST 7.0.5-2008  Bibliographic reference.
                 General requirements and rules of making.

Etc.

Currently, GOST contains 16 styles to format bibliography in English, Russian and Ukrainian according to GOST 7.0.5-2008 and GOST 7.1-2003. Both 8-bit and Unicode (UTF-8) versions of each style, in each case offering a choice of sorted and unsorted.

All styles in the GOST bundle are derived from single master file gost.dtx by applying different set of options as shown in the table below.

Style | utf8 | strict | eprint | long | sort | natbib :————–|:—-:|:——:|:——:|:—-:|:—-:|:——: gost2003 | | + | + | | | gost2003s | | + | + | | + | gost2008 | | | + | | | gost2008n | | | + | | | + gost2008l | | | + | + | | gost2008s | | | + | | + | gost2008ns | | | + | | + | + gost2008ls | | | + | + | + | ugost2003 | + | + | + | | | ugost2003s | + | + | + | | + | ugost2008 | + | | + | | | ugost2008n | + | | + | | | + ugost2008l | + | | + | + | | ugost2008s | + | | + | | + | ugost2008ns | + | | + | | + | + ugost2008ls | + | | + | + | + | Style |utf8|strict|eprint|long|sort|natbib

Gost2008 style is recommended for most applications. It corresponds to the currently effective Standard 7.0.5-2008. Librarians should use the style gost2003 instead of gost2008 to compile a library catalog to meet the Standard 7.1-2003. Use of other styles is best explained through the meaning of options used to compile those styles from the master source.

The strict option provides conformance to the Standard 7.1-2003. The bibstyles compiled with that option bear the name gost2003 with possible suffixes s, l, n as explained below. These styles are intended primarily for the librarians who compose a library catalog.

The bibstyles compiled without strict option meets the Standard 7.0.5-2008 which can be thought off as a relaxed version of the Standards 7.1-2003. These bibstyles bear the name gost2008 with possible suffixes s, l, n.

If the number of authors exceeds 4, modern styles cut the list of authors to at most 4 persons as prescibed by the Standards. Option long overrides this rule to provide backward compatibility with the package disser by Stanislab Kruchinin. Two styles, gost2008l and gost2008ls, compiled with the option long mimic behavior of the styles gost705 and gost705s from the disser package. Major effect of the long option is that the list of authors always precedes book or article title no matter how long is it. Modern styles compiled without long place long list of authors behind the title. The names of styles compiled with the option long has the suffix l. Recall that those styles do not conform effective Standards and their use is discouraged.

The eprint option enables formatting electronic publications. In particular, it enables eprint, eprinttype, eprintclass, and doi fields for a bibliographic entry. The styles generated without the eprint option, ignore the these fields. Starting from the version 1.2 of the GOST package, all modern styles are compiled with this option included, and the suffix e which designated this option in earlier versions is not appended to the name of style any more.

The natbib option provides compatibility with the natbib package. The names of styles compiled with the option natbib bear the suffix n. Currently 4 styles with that option are available for beta testing.

The sort option enables sorting bibliographic references by author names and references titles. The names of styles compiled with the option sort bear the suffix s.

Finally, the utf8 option produces bibliographic styles in unicode rather that in 8-bit encoding. Names of those styles bear the prefix u.

Beyond bibliographic style, GOST bundle contains CS files (codepage and sorting order).

Encoding CSF Sorting order
cp866 ruscii.csf Cyrillic first, Latin
cp1251 cp1251.csf Cyrillic first, Latin
koi8-u koi8u.csf Cyrillic first, Latin
utf8 utf8cyrillic.csf Cyrillic first, Latin

In addition, 8 distribution comes with few more CSFs.

Encoding | CSF |Sorting order —————–|———————-|———————– cp866 | cp866rus.csf |Latin first, Cyrillic

How to use

  1. Select bibliography style by adding appropriate \bibliographystyle

declaration to your source file file{<filename>.tex}, e.g.

\bibliographystyle{gost2008}
\bibliography{database}
  1. Add the field language="ukrainian" or language="russian" to the

bibliographic entries in Ukrainian or Russian languages in your database; English is the default language. German, Italian and French are partially supported.

  1. To compile list of references from your database use bibtex8.exe

rather than bibtex.exe. Depending on the codepage of your bibliographic database, indicate one of the CS files listed above as option to bibtex8.exe. Run , then run bibTeX8 and again:

latex <filename>.tex
bibtex8 -B -c <csf_file>.csf <filename>.aux
latex <filename>.tex
  1. For details on preparing bibliographic database see examples in

gost*.pdf and ugost*.pdf.

  1. ugost* styles are primarily intended for use

with unicode compilers (xelatex and lualatex). They should be preferred as well when using 8bit compilers (latex and pdflatex) if source file is in utf8 encoding.

  1. Neither bibtex.exe nor bibtex8.exe provides

correct sorting order of unicode text. It means that using ugost2008s or ugost2008ns may produce unexpected result for documents in utf8 encoding.

  1. Bibtex8 fails to change case of a string if it contains Cyrillic

letter in unicode. Therefore ugost2008* styles do not change case of titles and other parts of bibliographic record while 8-bit styles do the case change where appropriate.

  1. Either bibtex.exe or bibtex8.exe fail to cut Cyrillic names to

initials. Therefore ugost2008* styles do not modify name of authors.

  1. Package natbib is required when choosing styles with

suffix n in their names.

Customization

Every GOST style defines few commands to format some parts of a reference. You can redefine these commands prior to the \bibliography{<bibtex_style>} command. Initial definitions are listed below.

\providecommand*{\url}[1]{{\small #1}}
\providecommand*{\BibUrl}[1]{\url{#1}}
\providecommand{\BibAnnote}[1]{}
\providecommand*{\BibEmph}[1]{#1}

By default, gost styles separate logical parts of a bibliography record by a period and cyrdash (. "---). It is legitimate to drop that dash by overriding the command \BibDash as follows

\providecommand*{\BibDash}{}

By default, \BibDash is equivalent to the shorthand "--- defined by the babel package with the option russian. It prints a so called Cyrillic dash (\cyrdash), which is 20 % shorter then ordinary dash (---), and puts unbreakable space before \cyrdash so that dash never appears in the beginning of a line.
