Hi, I am new to Bookends and have a quick question. I am using MHRA format, which I have managed to tweak to suit.

One problem:
The footnotes should be ordered - first name, surname etc. (this happens fine)
but the bibliography needs to be ordered by surname and presented as - surname, first name ...

This is what I get:
Aijaz Ahmad, In Theory: Classes, Nations, Literatures (London: Verso, 1992).
Homi Bhabha, The Location of Culture (London: Routledge, 1994).


This is what I want:
Ahmad, Aijaz, In Theory: Classes, Nations, Literatures (London: Verso, 1992).
Bhabha, Homi, The Location of Culture (London: Routledge, 1994).

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

You need to create a custom citation format (for the citations), which will be called by the format that's creating the bibliography (the main format). Then they can differ. See APA 5th for an example of this. The User Guide (a separate download) give all the necessary details for doing this.
