Each bibliographic reference may be classified as a particular type,
e.g. book, article, thesis.
Each type, in turn, is defined by a set of attributes.
Below is a list of all such attributes.
For any one type, some of the attributes are required, some
optional, some undefined, and some ignored
(e.g. the attribute is there for some purpose
other than formatting such as indexing or recordkeeping).
Next to each attribute name is a brief description of its function.
