Bibliographies - Getting to grips with LaTeX. By Andrew Roberts For any academic/research writing, incorporating your references into your document is an important task. Fortunately, as LaTeX was aimed for this sort of work, it has a variety of features that make dealing with your references much simpler. LaTeX has built in support for citing references. However, a much more powerful and flexible solution is achieved thanks to an auxiliary tool called BibTeX (which comes bundled as standard with Latex.) BibTeX allows you to store all your references in an external, flat-file database.

You can then easily link this database to any Latex document, and cite any reference that is contained within the file. This is often more convenient that embedding them at the end of every document you write.
