What is a .bib file?
BibTeX (.bib) is a plain-text bibliography database used with LaTeX and reference managers. Each entry has a type (@article, @book, @inproceedings), a citation key, and tagged fields like author, title, year, and journal. It is the standard citation format in academic writing.
How to use this file
Use an example .bib file to test BibTeX and BibLaTeX parsers, reference managers (Zotero, Mendeley, JabRef), and citation-format converters (for example BibTeX to RIS or CSL-JSON).
