Automatic bibliographies!

It had to happen! You can now get automatic bibliographies generated for you on-line, from information as minimal as a book's ISBN number. Try it!

Two words of caution, though;

  1. It does not set up the in-text flags for you, such as Jarvis (2006), and
  2. Its default format is MLA (Modern Languages Association) while like most social "science" disciplines, we use APA (American Psychological Association); in order to get that, you have to take out a subscription, but that is only $7.99 (just over £5.00) for a year.
Pass the word!

  1. It now offers other styles in the premium version, which now works (although only through PayPal as far as I can ascertain) with eschange rate fluctuations it works out at £6.40 p.a. (as of yesterday).
