There are number of helpful tools to automatically generate bibtex entries for easy inclusion in LaTeX articles. My favorite is mathscinet because of the option to batch convert records to bibtex entries.
Mathscinet is limited to mathematics and statistics journals for the most part and it is of course important to be able to get entries from science journals. I have found two options for interfacing with Pubmed to generate bibtex entries.
1.This option is nice you simply need to input a list of PMID's separated by commas and it generates the corresponding bibtex entries:
http://software.bioinformatics.uwaterloo.ca/med2bib/
2. Hubmed: http://www.hubmed.org/
The wikipedia article about bibtex is actually pretty good and it lists other sources for generating bibtex entries, I have not experimented with these.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BibTeX
Several journal websites allow you to download bibtex entries. In fact, I have come across at least one website which allows you to download an article's entire bibliography in bibtex form. I will start compiling a list of such websites and post it soon.
