Export Citations from Summon
- Search for articles using the general search on the UBC Library website (a.k.a. the Summon search engine):
Search Summon:
- When you find an article you'd like to use, click the grey folder icon to save it to the Saved Items folder.
- When you are finished selecting articles, open your Saved Items folder in the bottom right of the screen.
- Choose BibTeX from the export options.
- Open the .bib file you created using LaTeX. Add a citation key to each source. For example,
@BOOK{lamp86,
AUTHOR = "Leslie Lamport",
TITLE = "LaTeX: A Document Preparation System",
PUBLISHER = {Addison-Wesley Publishing Company},
ADDRESS = "Reading, Massachusetts",
YEAR = 1986 } - Use these two commands in your LaTeX document to link the new .bib file you created:
- \bibliography{filename} where filename refers to the name of the .bib file you exported from RefWorks. This command generates the bibliography.
- \bibliography{filename} where filename refers to the name of the .bib file you exported from RefWorks. This command generates the bibliography.
- To insert an in-text citation, use the command:
- \cite{lamp86} where lamp86 is the citation key you assigned (in the .bib file) to the source you want to cite.
