Quarto website using global references list

Question

I'm trying to create a Quarto website with bibtex references output to a single (global) bibliography page where the reference citations are spread across qmd files. The default behavior is to include the bibliography at the bottom of each rendered qmd file (i.e., index.qmd and about.qmd).

For Quarto books, a single bibliography file can be created with a blank references.qmd file with the following content:

### References

::: {#refs}
:::

Is there a way to do this with Quarto websites? A MWE structure for a Quarto website:

_quarto.yml

project:
  type: website

website:
  title: "test"
  navbar:
    left:
      - href: index.qmd
        text: Home
      - about.qmd

bibliography: references.bib

format:
  html:
    theme: cosmo
    toc: true

editor: visual

index.qmd

---
title: "test"
---

This is a Quarto website.
