When I started using LyX, I had never heard of BiBTeX and was distressed that most documentation about bibliographies in LyX assumed I knew about LaTeX and BibTeX. After a while, I found a workable way and wrote up an introductory explanation for newcomers.

I hope users will find this helpful and I'd be delighted if any/all of the content could be added to the LyX documentation or linked on your website:

That is simple and graphically illustrated.

A less well illustrated (more fumbling and bumbling) document was circulated a while ago, and I don't really recommend it to new users. The only unique component is that it explains one route by which to create customized natbib style files for particular journals.
