[texhax] Localization of bibliography

[Karl Berry]

    Is there a way to get such words localized?

Harald Harders has written a package called babelbib.
http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/biblio/bibtex/contrib/babelbib/
(the distribution there also includes his TUGboat article on this.)

Jean-Michel Hufflen has written a program named mlbibtex which allows
for multilingual support.  I'm not sure if it's really ready for
production use, though, or where the best place is to download it.
Jean-Michel's email is on his web page
http://lifc.univ-fcomte.fr/~hufflen/.

Oren (Patashnik, bibtex author) has promised to address this, one way or
another, in the vaunted bibtex 1.0.  Not that that helps you now.

Robin's answer is probably the most practical immediate solution, though.
(Robin, perhaps above is more fodder for the future FAQ entry.)

Hope this helps,
