Summary description: Sophisticated Bibliographies in LaTeX (multiscript version)
Announcement text:
This package is the "multiscript" version of the biblatex package. It is intended to be backwards-compatible with the standard biblatex package and includes significantly enhanced functionality to support multiple scripts/languages of bibliography data fields and support for automatically switching babel/polyglossia languages for different fieldvariants. The intention is that this version will eventually replace standard biblatex and is being released as an independent package to allow for wider testing and feedback. It can be installed in parallel with standard biblatex and the package name is "biblatex-ms". It requires the use of the multiscript version of biber (biber-ms).
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/biblatex-ms More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/biblatex-ms
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Manfred Lotz CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs .

biblatex-ms – Sophisticated Bibliographies in LaTeX (multiscript version)
This package is the "multiscript" version of the BibLaTeX package intended to solve the issues faced by those wishing to create multiligual bibliographies. It is intended to be backwards-compatible with the standard BibLaTeX package and includes significantly enhanced optional functionality:
- Fields in data files can have different form/language alternates in the same entry
- Options to select/print a specific alternate are generally available
- babel/polyglossia language switching is done automatically based on the language associated with a field
The intention is that this version will eventually replace standard BibLaTeX and is being released as an independent package to allow for wider testing and feedback. It can be installed in parallel with standard BibLaTeX and the package name is biblatex-ms. It requires the use of the multiscript version of biber (biber-ms).
