I need to categorise my bibliography to separate published and unpublished sources. How can I do this?

If you are likely to want to categorise your bibliography, either this way, or perhaps into separate subject areas, you will need to enter a category term into each reference. It is common to use the label field to do this though you can choose another field if you prefer. You then need to edit the output style so that it sorts according to the category terms. To edit the output style – go to Bibliography Sort order. Select the option Other. You then need to select the fields you want to sort on. Choose the Label field first (or whichever field you have used for your term). After that you will probably want to sort by author, then title or year. Close your style and save the changes. Now decide on the categories you wish to use and assign a number to each to determine the order they will appear in the bibliography, for example, 1. Primary sources, 2. Secondary literature. If you didn’t assign categories to your references as you entered them, you can use the Change Field command to add
