This is a one time effort, and I can only hope to successfully parse out some percentage of them, but that's what I'm trying to do. I don't know how hopeful to be, and that's why I included the examples, as I thought I might be able to get some help parsing those either individually, or as a series of steps.

For example, I imagine parsing all the monographs out first, which involves both finding the monographs and not finding the other stuff. If I then have a filtered result file with no monographs, I might be able to filter for articles. I'm trying to figure out how to parse each of those example lines I included. After I convert everything to BibTex, the citations should be importable into various tools such as Refworks.

This is my hope. I don't need anything near perfection on the results, just something better than 100% manual tagging.

Any assistance would be hugely appreciated.
