To elaborate a bit more, let's say I have a tex file like this:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[style=ieee,backend=biber]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{references-global.bib}

\begin{document}
\cite{myref1,myref2}
\printbibliography
\end{document}

In its folder, there is no references-global.bib file, so naturally I have an error when biber is called:

ERROR - Cannot find 'references-global.bib'!

My question therefore is: can I place this references-global.bib in a location where it would be found by biber regardless of where my tex file is located (much like a package or so)

  • Would it not work simply to write the full path to references-global.bib? E.g. \addbibresource{C:\\User\blah\references-global.bib}? – confusedandbemused Jun 26 '19 at 14:57
  • I believe so. But I'd have to always write it, and it would change from PC to PC. I was looking for a solution where I could have a global bibliography, perhaps synced with git, dropbox or something, such that I could have an extensive bibliography resource, easily accessed throughout several machines! – Guilherme Zanotelli Jun 26 '19 at 19:33
