Thanks for de the great job!

My question: is possible unite two bib files (for example wos.bib and scopus.bib)?

Best regards,

Felipe Smolski

united_bib<-readFiles('wos.bib', 'scopus.bib') convert2df(united_bib)

hi, when uniting files from different databases, such as WoS and Scopus, the conventions used to store reference lists (citations) in a CR field are different. As result, citation-based analyses do not work on such hybrid data frames. Can you suggest any workaround for this? For example, a function that would check what database a given record (row) originated from and then converting the string of citations to a standardised format?

Hi, I encountered the same issue. There are some examples in the literature. You can refer to Miika Kumpulainen & Marko Seppänen (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11192-022-04475-7), and Echchakoui (https://link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s41270-020-00081-9). Hope you can get to the end of it, I am still working on it.
