Jacques,

The JabRef will only databse your citations for you, and help you use
them in certain environments.

As things stand for LiBO you'd need to use JabRef to export to either
an OpenOffice Spread sheet  (LiBO) or a .csv and use the informaiton
in a LiBO document in  a merge style from threre, or "Export to an
Ext3ernal SQL Database"  I use an  MySql database, then use LiBO
databse tools to bring informatoin you wish into your document inside.

At present independant of LaTex JabRef provides a standalone tool that
handles you author, title - bibliographical entries. Whether there is
closer integration with LiBO already I do not know.
