 @defmodule[scriblib/autobib]
 
+This library provides support for bibliography management in a Scribble
+document. The @racket[define-cite] form is used to bind procedures
+that create in-line citations and generate the bibilography in the
+document.
+
+Individual bibliography entries are created with the @racket[make-bib]
+function. See below for an example.
