I would love to downplay the significance of the errant missile that killed 2 people—as it’s clearly not an “attack” on a member state—but remember the world went to war over a Prince dude getting shot by a Serbian nationalist. That’s how easy things can escalate. I pray the U.S. plays a role of de-escalation, despite its bellicosity. We cannot let this suck the world into

Details from plaintiffs in Alex Jones trials make me wonder how people could become so hateful. Urinating on a child's grave!

Instead of using WorldCat I can use university libraries. UChicago and Harvard export bibtex.

WorldCat is using a service called Chegg for formatting exports. Chegg is a paid subscription service.

So much for the internet democratizing knowledge.

The new WorldCat doesn't export bibtex. Urgh. For LaTeX users this is a pain. I am also cataloging a library and rely on WorldCat's RIS export for inputting records where there are no ISBNs. And there's no RIS export either.
