I'd like to put in plug for my personal favorite bibliograhic software, Papyrus, from
Research Design Software. Very inexpensive (used to be less that $100), works well with
Windows and now with Macs, too. You don't need separate modules for importing, either!
Supports lots of formats, both for importing and exporting. Their website:
