Frequently asked questions

Can I bring over my Zotero or Mendeley library?

Yes. Export the library as BibTeX, RIS or CSL JSON and import it into Ibidex.

Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?

No. Titles, authors and DOIs are read from the PDF inside the browser, and the file is stored only on this device.

How do I add the bibliography to a document?

Use "Copy bibliography" and paste it into the document; italics are preserved.
