Importing Citations in XML, BibTeX, EndNote, or Mendelay Formats

Importing Citations in XML, BibTeX, EndNote, or Mendelay Formats

Virtually all citation/bibliographic software has the means to export from their native file format to the RIS .ris format. If not, there is free conversion software available on the web to do so. So, this "Extract RIS Citation" file-type plugin can (at least indirectly) import .xml, .bib, .enw, and other bibliographic file formats.

Note that Zotero can be used in a "minimalist" fashion as an all-purpose "translator" for the above purpose. It will import all of the above formats, and then export them in RIS format.

If you use Zotero "fully", then you can use the "Zotero Metadata Importer" GUI plugin to more comprehensively import your Zotero .pdf files and their associated Zotero metadata into Calibre. The "Extract RIS Citation" file-type plugin is unnecessary if you use ZMI.
