RefManageR

RefManageR provides tools for importing and working with bibliographic references. It greatly enhances the bibentry class by providing a class BibEntry which stores BibTeX and BibLaTeX references, supports UTF-8 encoding, and can be easily searched by any field, by date ranges, and by various formats for name lists (author by last names, translator by full names, etc.). Entries can be updated, combined, sorted, printed in a number of styles, and exported. BibTeX and BibLaTeX .bib files can be read into R and converted to BibEntry objects. Interfaces to NCBI Entrez, CrossRef, and Zotero are provided for importing references and references can be created from locally stored PDF files using Poppler. Includes functions for citing and generating a bibliography with hyperlinks for documents prepared with RMarkdown or RHTML.

Please see the vignette for an introduction and NEWS for the latest changes.
