Using JabRef makes an attractive, convenient, cross-platform and cross-application way of maintaining your bibliographic database in plaintext form. JabRef supports export to an .ODS spreadsheet which can be linked to the bibliographic database, allowing for fairly simple everyday use of JabRef as a bibiography editor.

The only difficulty comes when attempting to work out what OpenOffice bibliography entry type is output from each corresponding Bibtex (source format) entry type. This page gives those mappings. Unfortunately, they're not always self evident, and some systems will even have the same type listed more than once in OpenOffice with different ID numbers.
