Capital in Bibtex

Question

I want to show some letters in Bibliography as capital. For example:

@misc{libsvm,  
abstract = {LIBSVM is an implbmentation of Support vector machine (SVM).},  
author = {Chang, Chih-Chung},  
howpublished = {\url{http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm/}},  
keywords = {svm},  
posted-at = {2010-04-08 00:05:04},  
priority = {2},  
title = {LIBSVM.},  
url = "http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/~cjlin/libsvm/",  
year = {2008}  
}  

But "LIBSVM" is not shown as it is:

[3] Chih-Chung Chang. Libsvm. http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/ ̃cjlin/libsvm/, 2008.

How can I make the letters capital? Thanks and regards!

Answer 1

Generally, to keep BibTeX from turning your letters lowercase, enclose them in {}:

title = {A History Of {StudlyCaps}}

will produce "A history of StudlyCaps."

Alceu Costa is correct that all-capital abbreviations should be formatted in small capitals, but that is a different matter than this.

Answer 2

The \textsc is used to format the text in small capitals. You can do this in your .bib file:

title = {\textsc{LIBSVM}}

Answer 3

Place {} brackets around anything you want to keep in CAPS.

For example:

@type{bibkey,

  title = "{M}y {B}ibliography is the {B}est!",

  author = "{ABCDE}", 

}
