How do I import a Bibtex citation from Google Scholar into my .bib file?

Question

How do I import a Bibtex citation from Google Scholar into my .bib file?

Answer 1

I'm assuming you already have a .bib file created.



First, make sure Google Scholar knows you want a BibTeX reference. Go to "Scholar preferences" and select BibTeX as your Bibliography Manager.



Now each search result in Google Scholar will have a link entitled "Import into BibTeX." Click on that and your will get a text page that is the BibTeX entry for that reference. Simply cut and paste it into your .bib file using your favorite text editor. The .bib file is just a text file with all the BibTeX entries in it, one after the other.

Google scholar Help says:



How can I add the full citation of a result on Google Scholar to my bibliography manager?



Just visit the Scholar Preferences page and select your preferred citation format in the "Bibliography Manager" section. We currently support RefWorks, RefMan, EndNote, and BibTeX. Once you've saved your preferences, you can import a citation by clicking on the appropriate link in your Google Scholar search results.

Answer 3

Zotero has an extension that will download an entire page of citations. From there you can use Zotero to export to a bibtex and then use that for your .bib file.
