    Summary description: Annotated bibliographies with abstracts and annotations for BibLaTeX
    Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- biblatex-abs-annote v0.1.1 is a new biblatex supplement for producing annotated bibliographies. For each entry it renders, beneath the citation, the abstract and a user-written annotation drawn from standard biblatex fields (annote is accepted as a synonym for annotation); either field may be omitted per entry without special handling. The package composes with any biblatex style by patching the sixteen standard drivers, and all label, font, indent, and spacing choices are customizable. biblatex-abs-annote is the LaTeX component of the cross-format ab-annotate toolchain (GitHub: cwimpy/ab-annotate), which provides the same behavior for Typst and Quarto from a shared .bib file. Suggestions and bug reports are welcome.
