Is there an automatic reference generator that produces citations in LaTeX style that I can use ? I want to use IEEE Citation Style.
I have over 50 references that need to be cited, but typing them down manually will be hassle (looking back and forth on the referencing style tutorial)…
There are many online, but none produce the results in a LaTeX format.
I don't mind generating it and then copy-pasting the reference into my code, no need for it to be integrated with TexShop.
In TexShop, I'm currently doing this manually such as :
\begin{thebibliography}{10}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{REFERENCES}
\bibitem{lowry1951protein}Lowry, O. H., Rosebrough, N. J., Farr, A. L., and Randall, R. J. (1951). Protein measurement with the Folin phenol reagent. \emph{J. Biol. Chem.}, 193(1), 265--275.
\end{thebibliography}

First, I'd recommend you to get a citation manager, such as Zotero.
Then, by selecting it to export citations in
bibtex
format, you should be able to get from it something like this:Which you should just copy to your .bib file.
Meanwhile, your LaTeX code should look something like this:
As you can see, it call for the "refs.bib" file by using
\bibliography{refs}
.The result should be something like this:
If you are using a project in TeXnicCenter, please don't forget to select the option "uses BibTeX".
Or, as stated in the IEEE Journal Template:
This last paragraph can be set like this:
