Mr. dLib is a machine readable digital library. That means, you can access meta data and full text of academic articles via a REST based webservice (API) in XML, JSON and BibTeX.

Currently, Mr. dLib is under construction. If you want to try out Mr DLib, please send an email to beta@mr-dlib.org

Meanwhile, you might want to have a look at our free software SciPlore MindMapping for managing electronic literature, drafting papers and managing references.

December 2010:

Version 2 of our modified JabRef 2.6 released with better meta data extraction and better drag&drop support from SciPlore MindMapping. Download here. Questions? Feedback? Send an email to jabref@mr-dlib.org. Btw. there will be no more modified versions from us - the JabRef team will integrate our modifcations into the official JabRef release soon.

September 2010:

We offer a modified version of the reference manager JabRef 2.6. Our version can extract metadata from PDFs automatically and create a bibtex entry which links the PDF (similar to Mendeley). You can also drag & drop PDFs directly from SciPlore MindMapping to JabRef. Sounds good to you? Then download the latest now.
