You can see a document I wrote using org-ref here: http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/org/2014/05/13/Using-org-ref-for-citations-and-references.org

You will want to pull a current version. I added some code so it is in principle easy for you to add your own citation types and use the org-ref machinery to insert citations.


I made a little screencast here: http://screencast.com/t/bxfafVydE

And I used to have my own already in any case.

Neither do I.  The more annoying thing is that I cannot get org-ref to
work at all with emacs -q and a minimal org document.  Would you maybe
post the minimum setup for getting org-ref to work, along with a minimal
org document?

thanks,
