# Adding publication entries to the automated bibliography

## Expanding the automated bibliography with manual entries allows you to include titles not linked to an artwork on the platform

The bibliography on the online version of your catalogue raisonné is generated automatically by including all publications associated with the artworks in your catalog. The Navigating.art platform also allows you to manually add entries, guaranteeing that important publications are visible in your digital publication, even if they are not explicitly tied to published works.

This tutorial explains how to add publications to your website's indices manually.

### 1. Open the publication you would like to add to the bibliography.
