How to format your references using the Austrian Studies citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Austrian Studies. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

PaperpileThe citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNoteFind the style here: output styles overview
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and othersThe style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeXBibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author
Butler, D., ‘Institutes Prepare for Pioneering Bioinformatics Work’, Nature, 412.6843 (2001), p. 106
A journal article with 2 authors
Schmitz, Lars, and Ryosuke Motani, ‘Nocturnality in Dinosaurs Inferred from Scleral Ring and Orbit Morphology’, Science (New York, N.Y.), 332.6030 (2011), pp. 705–8
A journal article with 3 authors
Oppo, Delia W., Jerry F. McManus, and James L. Cullen, ‘Palaeo-Oceanography: Deepwater Variability in the Holocene Epoch’, Nature, 422.6929 (2003), p. 277
A journal article with 7 or more authors
Czechowicz, Agnieszka, Daniel Kraft, Irving L. Weissman, and Deepta Bhattacharya, ‘Efficient Transplantation via Antibody-Based Clearance of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Niches’, Science (New York, N.Y.), 318.5854 (2007), pp. 1296–99

Blog post

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report
Government Accountability Office, DOD Still Needs To Clarify Policies for Performing Research and Development for Other Agencies (U.S. Government Printing Office, 21 April 1980)

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation
Baker, Naomi S., ‘Bridging the Gap: Finding the Language of Soul’ (unpublished Doctoral dissertation, Pacifica Graduate Institute, 2012)

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article
Yablonsky, Linda, ‘World’s Fastest Canvas’, New York Times, 25 April 2010, p. ST3
