Creating a bib file by hand

Creating a .BIB file is actually quite simple. All you need to do is create a text file with the .bib extension. You can then add your BibTeX references to this file, one per line. For example:

  @article{smith201X,
    title        = {An interesting article},
    author       = {John Smith},
    year         = {201X},
    journal      = {Journal of Interesting Articles}
  }

Once you have your .BIB file created, you can then use it in your LaTeX documents by specifying the \bibliography{filename} command. For example:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{natbib}

\begin{document}

...

\bibliography{filename}

\end{document}

That’s all there is to it! Creating a .BIB file is a simple way to manage your BibTeX references. Be sure to check out our other articles on BibTeX for more tips and tricks!
