Hi all
I am using current AOO on Windows 7 and am trying to create a document for a 
thesis that I am doing
I have a list of works that need to be put into a bibliography using the MLA 
method which entails having the first line of the reference against the margin 
with any other lines indented (Literally the opposite of paragraphing). Is 
there any template that I can use to create such a file and where might I find 
it please
I am on the mailing list for this ort of query.
Many Thanks

just to share what I do: I create a 'style' for 'bibliography 1' and set up "Indents & Spacing" thus:

Before text     => 0.50"
After text      => 0.00"
First line      => -0.50

you may prefer or require other values; this roughly corresponds to MLA. I have it single-spaced. you can save an empty document with this style as a template.

I have put out an annual collection of essays by diverse authors; I have a template with styles set for biblio, footnotes, ToC, header and footer and so on.

others should offer better solutions.
