[open-bibliography] getting a personal bib library out

Thu Jan 19 14:25:29 UTC 2012

Use the EXPORT button in top right corner...then for JSON output, just
click on Templating... button which defaults to JSON :)  or roll your own,
such as Creole or WikiText or whatever template you want for records,
probably even RIS ? dunno.

Docs here:  http://code.google.com/p/google-refine/wiki/Exporters

And video 2 @ 5:30 shows David actually using the live preview feature of
Templating exporter:  http://code.google.com/p/google-refine/
