[twg-tds] Re: bibliography directory

[Karl Berry]

    I am trying to work out how to direct latex to search directories for my
    bibliography files database.

With the environment variable (or configuration file setting): 
If you use csh or tcsh:
  setenv BIBINPUTS /dir1:/dir2: 
If you use sh or bash:
  BIBINPUTS=/dir1:/dir2:
  export BIBINPUTS

Hope this helps,
karl
