-<para>Maintaining bibliography entries across a set of documents is tedious, time
-consuming, and error prone. It makes much more sense, usually, to store all of
-the bibliography entries in a single place and simply <quote>extract</quote>
-the ones you need in each document.</para>
-
-<para>That's the purpose of the
-<parameter>bibliography.collection</parameter> parameter. To setup a global
-bibliography <quote>database</quote>, follow these steps:</para>
-
-<para>First, create a stand-alone bibliography document that contains all of
-the documents that you wish to reference. Make sure that each bibliography
-entry (whether you use <tag>biblioentry</tag> or <tag>bibliomixed</tag>)
-has an ID.</para>
-
-<para>My global bibliography, <filename>~/bibliography.xml</filename> begins
-like this:</para>

-<para>When you create a bibliography in your document, simply
-provide <emphasis>empty</emphasis> <tag>bibliomixed</tag>
-entries for each document that you wish to cite. Make sure that these
-elements have the same ID as the corresponding <quote>real</quote>
-entry in your global bibliography.</para>
-
-<para>For example:</para>
-
-<informalexample>
-<programlisting><bibliography><title>Bibliography</title>
-
-<bibliomixed id="xml-rec"/>
-<bibliomixed id="xml-names"/>
-<bibliomixed id="DKnuth86">Donald E. Knuth. <citetitle>Computers and

-
-<para>Note that it's perfectly acceptable to mix entries from your
-global bibliography with <quote>normal</quote> entries. You can use
-<tag>xref</tag> or other elements to cross-reference your
-bibliography entries in exactly the same way you do now.</para>
-
-<para>Finally, when you are ready to format your document, simply set the
-<parameter>bibliography.collection</parameter> parameter (in either a
-customization layer or directly through your processor's interface) to
-point to your global bibliography.</para>
-
-<para>The stylesheets will format the bibliography in your document as if
-all of the entries referenced appeared there literally.</para>
