And for going beyond the bibliographic citations to include abstracts as
well, https://grobid.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ might be useful. --Kevin

Hi, Danielle,
Have you taken a look at https://text2bib.economics.utoronto.ca/ ? If it
works for you, that's likely to be one of the easiest methods to convert
the list into structured data.
Best,
Julia

Hello,
We have a faculty member looking to create a dataset from an annotated
bibliography she compiled. Right now it exists as a word file and as a pdf.
The entries are relatively structured with a citation and an abstract, but
the document is about 150 pages long with multiple entries per page. Rather
than manually copy and paste everything to create the spreadsheet/csv, I
wanted to ask for suggestions or approaches to doing this by either
scraping or extracting structured data from the pdf. Thanks very much in
advance!
