Tools and Utilities for BibTeX Citations

Utilities for Generating BibTeX Citations

When a lot of citations are involved, this becomes a troublesome task. Having some tools would make our lives easier.

Converting from text-plain citations to BibTeX entries

https://text2bib.economics.utoronto.ca/

From the site:

This site converts a list of references in a wide range of styles to BibTeX. Minimal requirements for input file:

  • Either references are separated by blank lines or each line is a separate reference or each reference starts with \bibitem{}, \bibitem{<label>}, \item, \bigskip, or \smallskip.
  • Each reference either starts (after possibly one of the separator strings mentioned in the previous point) with a list of authors, which is followed by either a year or a title, or starts with a year; if the authors are followed by a year, the next string is the title.

The conversion is not perfect, but is very good for many reference styles
