I think trying to import broad NLP findings into our narrower problem of

Nice, that might be what I need. Maybe I'll take a look at the LibX
code, it's open source, right?
Google Scholar has no API--you're screen scraping it?

Having written a pretty decent citation parser 10 years ago (in
Applescript!), and having seen a lot of people take whacks at the
problem, I have to say that it's pretty easy to write one that works
on 70-80% of citations, particularly if you stick to one scholarly

Does anyone have any decent open source code to parse a citation? I'm
