% Bibliography options
% Options available in the biblatex documentation, http://ctan.mirrorcatalogs.com/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex/doc/biblatex.pdf#46 (page 46)

%% Basic setup
\ExecuteBibliographyOptions{% This can also be included into some internal file, e.g. _settings.tex
	sorting=none,  % Dont sort refs, but list them as they come
	maxnames=5,  % Truncate author list after 5 authors ...
	minnames=3,  % ... But display at least 3 authors
	hyperref=true,  % Use hyperref package (should be automatically detected, though)
	backref=true,  % Back references from bibliography page to each encounter
	backrefstyle=two,  % Combine back refs if on two consecutive pages 
	isbn=false,  % Dont print ISBN, ISSN numbers
	autolang=hyphen
}

%% Appearance
\DeclareFieldFormat*{title}{\textbf{#1}\isdot}  % Paper title (of all types = *) should be bold and terminated with a dot
\DeclareFieldFormat{journaltitle}{\mkbibemph{#1},}  % Italic journal title with comma
\DeclareListFormat[report,techreport]{institution}{\mkbibemph{#1}}  % Italic institution
\DeclareFieldFormat[article]{volume}{\textbf{#1}\addcolon\space}  % Volume number bold and add a colon afterwards

\renewcommand{\labelnamepunct}{\addcolon\space}  % Print colon after author list, not the default (period)
\renewcommand{\mkbibnamefirst}[1]{\textsc{#1}}  % Make author names small caps; this, and some other stuff based on http://www.khirevich.com/latex/biblatex/
\renewcommand{\mkbibnamelast}[1]{\textsc{#1}}
\renewcommand{\mkbibnameprefix}[1]{\textsc{#1}}
\renewcommand{\mkbibnameaffix}[1]{\textsc{#1}}

%% Some more tweaks following
\DefineBibliographyStrings{english}{% The name of back refs.
    backrefpage  = {\lowercase{s}ee p.},  % For single page number
    backrefpages = {\lowercase{s}ee pp.}  % For multiple page numbers
}

\AtEveryBibitem{\clearlist{language}}  % Clears "language" field from .bib for every item

\renewcommand{\UrlFont}{\small\ttfamily}  % Makes the URL fixed-width font a bit smaller

\DeclareSourcemap{% Will display URL only if DOI is not specified, adapted from here: http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/154875/56326
