LMU citation styles

The LMU citation styles for Citavi available for download on this web page have been developed over a number of years by the University Library in collaboration with the appropriate subject experts. Should you come across an error, or if you have a question about citation styles, please contact the address given in the right-hand service column.

We cannot accept any liability for the styles. You are responsible for checking that your finished work conforms to the standard citation practice recommended by your professor or department.

You are also welcome to send us new LMU citation styles by contacting the address given in the service column on the right-hand side.

Compatibility

The citation styles are backward compatible. All styles that have been created with Citavi 4 can also be used in Citavi 5. It is, however, not possible to use citation styles from Citavi 5 in earlier versions of Citavi.

You can identify a citation style that only works in Citavi 5 by the specification [Citavi 5] at the end of the indicated citation method.

If you encounter any difficulty while importing a citation style into Citavi 5, we will be pleased to help you.
