A much superior approach to bibliographies in Apache OpenOffice is now provided by Jabref. See https://www.jabref.org/ for details. Using this program, there is no need to configure the bibliography layout using the Apache OpenOffice, it can all be configured from a powerful *.jstyle file that you provide to Jabref.

Using JabRef makes an attractive, convenient, cross-platform and cross-application way of maintaining your bibliographic database in plaintext form. JabRef supports export to an .ODS-spreadsheet which can be linked to the bibliographic database, allowing for fairly simple everyday use of JabRef as a bibliography editor.

The only difficulty comes when attempting to work out what OpenOffice bibliography entry type is output from each corresponding Bibtex (source format) entry type. This page gives those mappings. Unfortunately, they're not always self-evident, and some systems will even have the same type listed more than once in Apache OpenOffice with different ID numbers.
