This directory is provided for contributed biblatex styles. Every
uploaded style installed here should go into a subdirectory of its
own. Please send any feedback and bug reports concerning the styles
found here to the author of the respective style.

INSTALLATION

The styles will typically come with a .cbx and a .bbx file. They may
include additional support files and/or documentation. If the style
does not include installation instructions, proceed as follows. Copy
the .cbx and .bbx files to:

	<TEXMFLOCAL>/tex/latex/biblatex-contrib/<STYLE>/

where <TEXMFLOCAL> denotes the root of the local TeX installation
tree and <STYLE> is the name of the style. Don't forget to update
the file hash tables after installing the files.

While it is not strictly required, it is a good idea to keep all
contributed styles in 'tex/latex/biblatex-contrib/' rather than
installing them in 'tex/latex/biblatex/'.

You are free to create additional directories at a lower level
('cbx/' and 'bbx/' for example). Technically, this is not required.
Please see the following TeX FAQ answers for further details:
