We present here only a collection of models of the most frequently cited types of publication, with the structure and rules that we require in our editions. If it is necessary to cite a work that is not listed here, see other models offered by the TEI-C.

The tag that indicates all bibliographic references is <bibl>, and it contains tags such as <author> (author), <editor> (editors, commentators and translators), <date> (publication date), <title> (title of book, article, journal, etc.),<edition> (reeditions and editions starting from the second one), <pubPlace> (place of publication), <biblScope> (page ranges, no. of volume, etc.), <idno> (numerical identifiers), etc.

Each of these tags can carry different attributes, indicating, for example, the kind of title it is (a book, an article, a journal, a collection, etc.), or what kind of identifying number it is (DOI, URL, ISBN, etc.). We need to indicate them in all contexts.
