The Word user only has to set the IP address of the server through the Configure IP server option of the BiBWord submenu in order to have the database available. There are a number of tools for bibliography management in the marketplace. Among them, we want to mention EndNote and ProCite , both from ISI ResearchSoft . Although they provide interesting features like automatic bibliography generation and bibliography sharing across the Web, with plenty of different collections available, they do not provide importing of BiBTeX archives into their databases. In this paper we have introduced BibWord, a bibliography management utility that makes the creation of technical documents easier by automating the bibliography generation phase.
Future work includes a richer model of bibliography generation.
Currently, only three predefined formats are available, and some publishers request a particular format for bibliography that does not fit in any of them. We are currently working on the definition of a fully configurable generation through the use of bibliography templates. References 1 Goossens, M., Mittelbach, F. and Samarin, A.
