biblatex-archaeology is a LaTeX package that provides styles according to the referencing rules of the Römisch-Germanische Komission, since these serve in German prehistory and medieval archaeology as a template for verbose and author date styles.
After releasing the first private Beta of Docear4Word a few weeks ago, we are confident to release the first public Beta in about a week. Currently we are working on the final mapping of BibTeX fields and types with the corresponding entries of the Citation Style Language (CSL). Unfortunately, it is not always obvious how to match BibTeX and CSL. Our current mapping looks like the following. If you think something is missing, or incorrect, please let us know.
BibTeX is a program and file format designed by Oren Patashnik and Leslie Lamport in 1985 for the LaTeX document preparation system. The format is entirely character based, so it can be used by any program (although the standard character set for accents is TeX). It is field (tag) based and the BibTeX program will ignore unknown fields, so it is expandable. It is probably the most common format for bibliographies on the Internet.
isi2bibtex is a translator which allows translation of downloaded ISI Web of Knowledge literature entries. This page is the catalog entry of the "Comprehensive TeX Archive Network".
This database provides style files (bst and sty) for use with LaTeX documents using BibTeX or AMSrefs to manage the bibliography. The styles are referenced by the academic journals to which they apply.
Biblatex is a complete reimplementation of the bibliographic facilities provided by LaTeX in conjunction with BibTeX. It redesigns the way in which LaTeX interacts with BibTeX at a fairly fundamental level. With biblatex, BibTeX is only used (if it is used at all) to sort the bibliography and to generate labels. Formatting of the bibliography is entirely controlled by TeX macros (the BibTeX-based mechanism embeds some parts of formatting in the BibTeX style file. Good working knowledge in LaTeX should be sufficient to design new bibliography and citation styles; nothing related to BibTeX’s language is needed.
CiteInPages comprises three Applescripts for use with the open source reference manager BibDesk and Apple's word processor, Pages (v. 3, from iWork '08). Using BibDesk templates, "working citations" containing BibTeX cite keys in a defined format can be d

JabRef is a cross-platform BibTeX reference manager. I use it to manage my references for my research, not only because BibTeX is my preferred format, but also for the added features such as keeping track of my pdfs.
JabRef exports to a wide range of different formats, and also allows one to write custom export filters. I have written several export filters for HTML pages. The main features lie in the JavaScript to search and view the references.
This week's feature of the week is something for our more experienced users but I guess that applies to many Emacs users anyway. ;-)
For all of you that write their LaTeX files using GNU Emacs I present a small script that simplifies its interaction with BibSonomy.
Both for individual researchers as for research groups or projects, it is of major importance to organize the literature one has read. A well organized bibliography is a powerful instrument. It speeds up the search for publications one has already read and supports the user in structuring information. Aigaion provides a bibliography management software environment that supports a user in just this: Organizing and managing a complete bibliography, from small bibliographies to bibliographies for a complete research department.
A LaTeX-based replacement for BibTeX. Amsrefs is a LaTeX package for bibliographies that provides an archival data format similar to the format of BibTeX database files, but adapted to make direct processing by LaTeX easier. The package can be used either in conjunction with BibTeX or as a replacement for BibTeX. See also biblatex.
Bibliographies in LaTeX using BibTeX for sorting only. The biblatex package is a complete reimplementation of the bibliographic facilities provided by LaTeX in conjunction with BibTeX. It redesigns the way in which LaTeX interacts with BibTeX at a fairly fundamental level. With biblatex, BibTeX is only used to sort the bibliography and to generate labels. Instead of being implemented in BibTeX's style files, the formatting of the bibliography is entirely controlled by TeX macros. Good working knowledge in LaTeX should be sufficient to design new bibliography and citation styles — there is no need to learn BibTeX’s postfix stack language. Just like the bibliography styles, all citation commands may be freely (re)defined.
The cb2Bib is a free, open source, and multiplatform application for rapidly extracting unformatted, or unstandardized bibliographic references from email alerts, journal Web pages, and PDF files. The cb2Bib facilitates the capture of single references from unformatted and non standard sources. Output references are written in BibTeX. Article files can be easily linked and renamed by dragging them onto the cb2Bib window. Additionally, it permits editing and browsing BibTeX files, citing references, searching references and the full contents of the referenced documents, inserting bibliographic metadata to documents, and writing short notes that interrelate several references.
Referencer is a Gnome application to organise documents or references, and ultimately generate a BibTeX bibliography file. Referencer includes a number of features to make this process easier: * Smart web links Referencer uses documents' metadata to provide handy links to the document's web location — no need to maintain your own bookmarks. * Import from BibTeX, Reference Manager and EndNote No need to start from scratch — Referencer will import your existing bibliography files using the BibUtils library. * Tagging No need to organise your documents into rigid directory trees — with Referencer you can use tags to categorise your documents. * Automatic arXiv, PubMed and CrossRef metadata retrieval If you show Referencer a PDF which has an arXiv ID or DOI code, Referencer will retrieve the metadata for this document over the internet. * Python plugin support Referencer can be extended using the versatile Python scripting language. * Localisation
