Glen, thanks for that. Yes, it sounds like the exact same process as with EndNote.

I actually think that the full integration of referencing with Scrivener might be a double-edged sword. On the one hand it would simplify this process, on the other it may actually undermine Scrivener’s original purpose of being a writing-focused application. When I was using Word, I often found myself editing the citations, rather than focusing on the writing itself. In this sense I don’t mind that Scrivener is not fully integrated with any bibliographic software.
