Bibliography Management System:- Ugwoke Daniel U.

ABSTRACT

Bibliographic management software, citation management software or personal bibliographic management software is software for scholars and authors used for recording and utilizing bibliographic citations (references). It is also a list of information materials published by a given author or within a given country at a particular period of time. It can be perennial biannual etc. Once a citation has been recorded, it can be used time and again in generating bibliographies, such as lists of references in scholarly books, articles and essays. The development of reference management packages has been driven by the rapid expansion of scientific literature. These software packages normally consist of a database in which full bibliographic references can be entered, plus a system for gener3ting selective lists of articles in the different formats required by publishers and scholarly journals. BibTeX is reference management software for formatting lists of references. The BibTcX tool is typically used together with the LaTeX document preparation system within the type setting system.
