2.Switch to Biblioscape. Select the reference(s) you want to cite and go to “Edit | Shoot Citation Tag”. A temporary citation will be automatically inserted into your word processor, and your word processor will become the active window. This feature works only for Microsoft Word and Corel WordPerfect.

Drag while you write

If you use Word or WordPerfect to write paper, you can run BiblioSidekick instead of Biblioscape. BiblioSidekick is a small utility that has a small window and can be set to always stay on top. When you are ready to cite a reference, just find it in BiblioSidekick, then drag-and-drop it into the desired position in the Word or WordPerfect document.

 

If you use Biblioscape's notes module to write, you can drag-and-drop a reference from the right panel to the desired position in your document.

Cite while you write

If you use Word or WordPerfect, you can also start a search inside your word processor. If only one reference was found, the temporary citation will be inserted automatically. If more than one reference is found, you will be prompted to pick one. To start a search, go to the Biblioscape-related menu in Word or WordPerfect "Biblioscape | Search Reference". Enter the search text and click the OK button.
