 "BibItNow" is a browser plugin that requires only a single click (or even less) to extract bibliographic data from abstract pages of journal articles, books and theses, and to translate this data to the Bibtex,RIS,Endnote or (B)arnold S. format. With another click or button press, this data is then either in the clipboard or accessible as a download, ready to be copied into your bibliography system of choice. The main purpose of this plugin is to separate the task of extracting bibliographic data from the bibliographic library functionality itself, thereby offering the benefit of a simpler and more streamlined export procedure compared to otherwise much more powerful library tools such as JabRef or Zotero.
