Nicolas & Bruce, thank you for the suggestions.

So I did this, which did not work immediately due to some errors; in particular, =parsebib-parse= did not exist as I had an old version installed. For the record, in the end, I needed to do the following: 1. set =org-cite-basic-author-column= to a larger number 2. install =embark= 3. update and load =parsebib= 4. load =oc-bibtex-actions= 5. set =org-cite-insert-processor= to ='oc-bibtex-actions= Now =org-cite-insert= works like a charm! I had been planning on trying out embark in due course; now I have no excuse to play with it sooner than expected.
