APA Style Sorting Bibliography by Date in Word

kbsim

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has CLS file which sorts bibliography by date in word in APA citation style.

If you don't mind sharing, it would be great if I can get it via email.

Thank you in advance!

The APA “curriculum vitae” style on the Zotero repository sorts the bibliography by date if that is what you are looking for

Hello bwiernik,
thanks for the message.

American Psychological Association 7th edition (curriculum vitae, sorted by descending date) is very similar to what I was looking for.
However, I am looking for something that sorts by "ascending" date not "descending date"). From the oldest to the newest.

Open that CSL file and go down to the “bibliography” section near the bottom. Add sort="descending" to the “key” for date-sort

Again, thank you for your response!

Just to clarify, when I opened the style editor of American Psychological Association 7th edition (curriculum vitae, sorted by descending date), this is how it was coded:

<sort>
<key macro="date-sort-group" sort="descending"/>
<key macro="date-sort-date" sort="descending"/>
<key variable="status"/>
<key macro="author-bib"/>
<key macro="title"/>
</sort>

It seems like "sort="descending"" is already added.

Would you be able to show me where I should add that?
For some reason, the website is not allowing me to show the code.

Much appreciated.

To display code you must enclose it within open and close html tags
<code> text text text </code>

It will then display as:

text text text

If you want to have the order reversed, just use "ascending" then.
