Bibliography

A Bibliography represents a database of references that may be cited in a CreativeWork. Unlike the references property on CreativeWork (which contains only the references that are actually cited), a Bibliography contains all available references loaded from an external source file (e.g. BibTeX, YAML) at compile time.

The loaded references are ephemeral and are stripped when the document is saved, to be reloaded on the next compilation.

This type is marked as unstable and is subject to change.
