Introducing Bib Manager and Word Citer This project is aimed to provide two free, open-source and cross-platform tools for managing and using BibTeX bibliography. Bib Manager allows to manage references and store them both as relational databases as well as the usual .bib text plain files. Its main advantage is that several users can concurrently consult and modify a given bibliographical repository, therefore promoting collaborative work. Word Citer allows to cite, extract and list references following any LaTeX bibliographic style in a MS Word document. References are stored in a database or in a .bib file which can be managed by Bib Manager. Bib Manager is cross-platform, free, and open-source. Word Citer has the same features but, obviously, it is not cross-platform. These two tools are described in: “Bib Manager and Word Citer: Bibliography Management and Citation Extraction”, PracTeX Journal 2007-3, special issue on “Tools for LaTeX and TeX Users”.
