Springer Bibtex Converter v0.66

URL for a Springer Online webpage: (e.g. http://www.springerlink.com/content/yjnvvn0vx5bcqnfj/ OR doi:10.1007/s10115-003-0137-2)

Make the output bibtex as a downloadable file

Note 1: Do double check the extracted fields, especially for the title, author, abstract, and keywords.
Note 2: Some DOIs contain underscores (i.e. "_"). This may cause pdflatex to stop compiling. One quick & dirty way to get rid of the compiling error is to precede each underscore with a backslash, but then the DOIs would be invalid. Let me know if you know a better solution. (I tried to enclose the whole DOI field with curly brackets, but I can't remember why I that solution did not work well.)

Brief Instruction

  1. Paste the URL or DOI (prefixed with "doi:" or "doi://") for the springer article into the text box above. It currently supporting @inproceedings, @article and @proceedings types.
  2. If you want the output as a bibtex file, check "Make the output bibtex as a downloadable file".
  3. Click 'Submit' or hit Enter.

Bookmarklet

Next line is a Springer->BibTeX bookmarklet (?):

Here's a link for it: Springer->BibTeX (suggested and partially contributed by Gerrit Kaiser). You should be able to just drag-n-drop the link to the bookmarks toolbar.

How to use the bookmarklet

  1. Open up a Springer's page.
  2. Click the bookmarklet. A new page should pop up and generate the bibtex entry.
