Please make it possible to select a few resources in your library and generate a bibliography of them.

For example, I want to make a bibliography of:
1) all books by a certain author
2) all books with "church history" in the title
3) all books that I have tagged for my hermeneutics class.

These resources are all easily found in the library, but I can't generate a bibliography from there.

    Actually you can. Select the books. open the information pane. use the save to bibliography function.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    @MJ. Smith  That's so cool, thank you! At the same time, I'd like to see this feature in the context menu, which is more user-friendly (and user intuitive) than using the panel menu.

    UPDATE: you can already create a bibliography from the info pane in the Library, but it would be much more user-friendly and more intuitive to add this feature to the context-menu when selecting a few resources.

    @Michel Pauw  Yes, I agree. I searched for a while for a way to do this before I realized there was a link way down in the lower right side (in the Info panel). I would have expected the command to be on the three-dots menu (upper right of the Library) and/or on the Context menu when you right click on the selected group of resources.
